ICANN wants by next year allow companies to own top level domains for example myspace could be myspace.myspace or icann.icann or New York City .nyc in other words dot whatever. Such domains could cost companies more then 50.000 or even six figures. That is still to come in 2009. I guess people have too much money yet we struggle from .GAS prices!

I think all these extra extensions are confusing. Why couldnt they just keep it at .com. org. .net ?
Life was simple in those days
@Tom - StandOutBlogger.com: Industry wants more money from domains. Also top level domains got very expensive I just sold Hawaiib.com for 170 yet I spent only 5$
I saw this mentioned on http://www.SubliminalMessages.Com and think ICANN has made a horendous mistake. Terrible. Foolish. Painfully wrong!
What I think will now happen is …nothing. Absolutely nada.
Sure, some suckers will waste their money buying .Bullcrap, but they will choke on it as a bad investment. Just like no one wanted .aero, .travel., .museum., or .coop, no one will want .peanut, .butter or .jelly.
Bottom line, no change whatsoever and now ICANN is totally out of ammunition. Bad move.
