I'm curious why some of those rows are colored blue (IDN, KIDS, UMMAH). I also wonder what effect this will have on domain squatting (probably very little, all told). Anyone have any favorites? I see .DOT (dot.dot, anyone?), .WINNERS, .SUCKS (more desirable than .SEX), .NINJA, .MATRIX (registered by L'Oreal rather than HP, sadly), .IRA (financial planning and domestic terrorism in one convenient location), and absolu…
Google wants: .ads, .and, .android, .app, .are, .baby, .blog, .boo, .book, .buy, .cal, .car (no .cdr?), .channel, .chrome, .cloud, .corp (great way to snoop on poorly configured intranets), .cpa, .dad, .day, .dclk, .dds (New: Google Dentist!), .dev, .diy, .docs, .dog, .dot, .drive, .earth, .eat, .esq, .est, .family, .film, .fly, .foo, .free, .fun, .fyi, .game, .gbiz, .gle, .gmail, .gmbh (really?), .goo, .goog, .googl…
These applications (the Google ones) are registered under "Charleston Road Registry Inc." Anybody knows why ? The mail address is in @google.com, so I suppose Google has some relation to it, but still..
Nobody knows what legal mess these TLDs will cause.
Kinda like how AWS isn't run by Amazon but by "Amazon Web Services LLC."
The most contentious domains are .app (13 applications), .inc (11), .home (11), and .art (10), followed by .shop, .blog, and .book, and .llc at 9. Rough list here: https://gist.github.com/2923898
Is there a default domain for these tlds? Let's take .home for example. How will this work when typing it into a browser? If you have my.home, it makes sense. If you type www.home, it really looks ugly, but I guess it works, and we've spent the past few years moving away from including "www" as a whole. Typing "com" into my url bar doesn't get me anywhere, so I'm assuming typing "home" won't either. If I bought "appl…
These are top level domain namespaces. So in the case of .home. The registrar for that domain can sell my.home, your.home, newyork.home, etc. The equivalent for the .com domain would be my.com, your.com, newyork.com, etc. Make sense?

What happens when several companies want the same one? There's a whole bunch of companies going for .app, so who gets which domains?
OMFG what the hell is with all the real email addresses listed - its a spammers paradise. You'd think they'd be all throwaways but there's a lot of real ones (eg. banks, communications) and also noticed a smattering of gov domains.
