The ICANN has approved a new TLD, .xxx. It probably won’t be seen anywhere until June, but there have been over 250,000 registrations already. Apparently, there is a system set up to make sure the domains only go to people IFFOR deems as “officially in the adult entertainment industry.”

I agree with this article in that there have been many useless TLD’s coming out in the past decade, some of which may be put to good use, but with .xxx for adult content, .AERO and .travel for those areas, what’s next? .train, .car, . bicycle?
