I understand, but I believe as others have pointed out that ICANN would deny said applications. And if the spammers/scammers have enough money to afford the infrastructure necessary for a TLD, I think we may have a bigger problem.

This is a bad example only because .ac.uk is technically a second-level domain, and anything under it would be a third-level subdomain of .ac.uk Technically speaking, of course.

No, you'd still have to scour the web for each individual library of tags. Since they require the .register() on the page, from what I understand. Though your last part, with <require /> is fascinating and would greatly improve thi

While I considered this approach to be plausible at first glance, it isn't. For the tags to work for your users, they would also have to visit the registry for that tag.

The steps seem pretty dishonest to me. Correct me if i'm wrong, but these are the real X-Tag steps: 1. Scour the web for a plugin 2. Add the plugin script include to your page 3. Copy/Type the new HTML tag 4. Customise the plugin with your

That doesn't make it a bad thing. When did marketing depend on search engines? Search Engines aren't the end all be all.

The point of a domain name is an easy to remember address. Not a guessing game. Not an easy to guess address. I'm not even sure how you came to that conclusion based on what I said. Multiple domain names (like book et al) will hopefully b

While that's true, it's probably because gov and edu domains are strictly regulated. I could imagine google giving higher priority to .book addresses, provided that (a) the user was searching for a book and (b) .book addresses required that

They probably wouldn't bother trying to guess. And I honestly don't see that as a bad thing. I rarely guess domain names. If I don't know the address, I search it. I expect most normal people search it even if they do know the address.

I didn't bother to read the terms of API use. I'm not using the API ^^;; I'm simply using their embeddable video player and changing the height and width to a form more appropriate for desired usage.

You don't have to buy an Android phone to debug Android webkit. Just get the toolkit and run the emulator. (Which is a bit slow unless you install an x86 image and Intel HAXM). The same applies for Apple, you just have to download their S

I read over this and all I can think is that OP didn't do what he should've. Their process of pulling in funds when you have a negative balance is automated. (check) He said he'd fund it from another source, but as far as I read (got really

No but you DO need a new protocol for the mess that is mime types in emails, and the two popular open access protocols IMAP and POP - which are atrocious.

I like this. This seems like a good temporary fix before one of us finally breaks down and creates a good email protocol that takes the uses of modern email into account; as well as a webclient and server for that protocol. Mayhaps I'll ha

I guess that's the /other/ issue with a lack of an API. If you know a secure way of getting credentials please advise. All the source is open, and it literally comes in and goes out. Nothing logged etc.
