Startup Applies For 307 GTLDs 239
itwbennett writes "Startup Donuts has set its sights on being a domain-name registry. With $100 million in venture capital in its pocket, Donuts has applied for 307 of the most generic of generic top-level domains. The new domains will be targeted toward specific services, said Jon Nevett, a cofounder and vice president of corporate affairs at Donuts. For example, the .tickets domain would be where Web users could expect to go to buy event tickets. 'There will be more names geared toward what consumers are looking for,' Nevett said."

No. The best website for selling tickets should be tickets.tickets.tickets

Doesn't seem very enthusiastic. Maybe the next step ICANN should take is exclamation marks?
tickets!tickets!tickets!

I regularly start with a TLD and work backwards when I'm looking for things, rather than searching Google...
*facepalm*
You're in luck! Google registered the .google TLD so you can start your Google search by using the TLD!

What about the long time dream of this web site to have a .DOT domain? So that we can have:
http: slash slash slash dot dot dot
( http://slashdot.dot/ [slashdot.dot] )

There's a huge legal coming over who owns girls.girls.girls [youtube.com].
So the lawyers are all ejaculating over this? A reasonable assumption, I'd say...
