Get ready for ".Maysville .Kentucky" and ".ebay."
Starting in early 2009, almost any word will be able to replace ".com" in a Web page address.
That opens the door for addresses such as BBS.Maysville www.restaurants.maysville or www.books.amazon
The decision was made Thursday by the organization that manages the technical underpinnings of the Web, the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers. ICANN, a non-profit based in Marina del Rey, Calif., wants "to increase competition and choice," CEO Paul Twomey says.
This should assure the Go Daddy ad on the next few super bowls.........lol
There is a lot of money to be made on this decision.
