.xxx gonna get the greenlight?

Hell Puppy · 06-23-2008

The article used .xxx to draw eyeballs.

What they're really considering doing is opening up the ability for people to register their own TLD's. .xxx would certainly be a hot one and go early.

But the real vision here would be for say someone like Fox with it's FX network, to have a TLD just for the FX network, so they could then have domains like:

TheShield.FX
RescueMe.FX
NipTuck.FX

you could do the same with say the NFL:

falcons.nfl
cowboys.nfl
patriots.nfl

The question I have is how do you control the chaos? What qualifies for it's own TLD and how do you determine who has rights to it? .XXX would be a prime example of this. Highest bidder? Imagine the fun.
