Musing on an interesting ICANN announcement that anyone will be able to create their own custom TLDs.
Interesting ICANN announcement that anyone will be able to create their own custom top level domains (TLDs). So I would be able to buy a domain name like www.webdeveloper.chrispeters.

“Just go to rap videos dot mtv”
“…dot com?”
“No dot com.”
“No dot com?”
“Yeah, just rap videos dot mtv. No dot com at the end.”
“So you’re saying rap videos dot mtv no dot com?”
“Yes.”
“That’s weird.”
“I know.”
“Oh well… OK…” :: Goes to computer and types “rapvideos.mtvno.com” ::
