Here is how it goes:
Top-level domains: if you or I can, do we need Icann?
THERE WAS a time when the internet didn’t just have a father or a godfather: for a brief period, it had a fully fledged god. The god died and a private company, Icann, took his place. Now it’s time we asked SHARETHIS.addEntry({ title: "If ICANN = ICAN’T......

ICANN has just published a paper from its contractor PowerAuctions LLC, regarding the use of auctions to award new Top Level Domains (TLD) strings in case of contention.
I can understand what ICANN wants to avoid. In the past, it has been criticized for using the “beauty contest” m...

Anders Hofseth spotted this mysterURL in Egypt. Your guess is as good as mine. This URL should've been flagged before they, ah... flagged it.

| Shop Nautica.com
Mark Alves caught this URL on the subway. Sure looks like ShopNautica.com. Reminds me of Ban Boredom.com but this time the words don't go together. Goes to show how important spacing is in URL display. This URL is poorly-trained.

Now here's some good Leading Caps. And I like the integration of the campaign and the URL. This one is so good it's funny.

One more from the Good URL Bad URL mailbag. Emma Brooks snagged this SERP-er Bad URL. Surely they could've streamlined their navigation or at least created a redirect so we don't have to look at "ca" and "ce" next to each other. Phil Connors? Is that You? It's me, Ned Ryerson! Needlenose Ned. Ned the head.

 | Recently Expired: 4 Character .com
Maybe you think it’s nuts… maybe you think it’s just a crazy way for people to waste their hard earned money… but I say - phooey! I’ve already profited off of these nutty, crazy, wastes of money! All I have to say is that’s what people thought about 4 “letter” .coms
