Do you have ideas for TLDs? Here's some of mine, not sure if any of these exist already:

  • .plus
  • .now
  • .ent (short for enterprise)
  • .one
  • .er (for domain hacks, don't get any ideas)
  • .db
  • .source

I would take the old ones back from for profits, put them in the hands of a non-profit and keep them at a sensible price. All this land speculation is bullshit and contributes no value to domain users - its all a get rich scheme for a small number of insiders.
