"so.sue.me"
- as you may already know, the Stumblng Tumblr always likes a good ccTLD story; well, here via this is one
- the ccTLD of Montenegro is .me
- according to the story:
The .me registry says it has received thousands of domain name registrations in the first week of availability. Applicants include tech industry leaders such as Apple — which registered apple.me, ipod.me and itunes.me — as well as Microsoft, Skype and Digg. Other multinationals that have registered .me names include MTV and BMW.
…
The last time a country tried to market its country code extension as a generic domain name was the tiny island nation Tuvulu, which runs the .tv registry. Although .tv names have been available for a decade and have been marketed by VeriSign for online video content, the .tv extension is not among the 10 most popular country code top-level domains.
… .me’s appeal is more immediate and a lot more obvious to people [than .tv’s]…And it has … appeal not just for TV stations, which are limited in number.
…
… Anyone can register a .me name from June 6 through June 26. The .me registry is scheduled to go live on July 17.
