Announcing the .ME domain! Me me ME is now a TLD, landrush starts today

Are you aware
;
of the country Montenegro? You know, that happenin’ place that has its very own top level domain of .me?

Well, brilliant folks that they are…. they’re now letting non-Montenegro folk buy domains that end in .me.

Clever entrepreneurs can take advantage of words that end in “me” like:

• airtime (buyCellular.airti.me !)
• anime (japanese.ani.me !)
• aflame (iAm.afl.me !)
• lame (bobIs.la.me !)
• name (JoeIsMy.na.me !)

or they can simply buy .ME domains like:

• learn.me
• TomCruise.me
• help.me
• phone.me

GoDaddy is currently offering a LandRush and pre-registration period for them that starts today and ends on June 26th; the price is $49.99 with a 2 year minimum registration. When you get to the GoDaddy site, click on

Domains | Register Domains

and you should see:

Domaining is NOT a business in which I am familiar (you can check out the excellent ebook Killer Domains if you’d like to learn about it) and so I’m going to let this particular “gold rush” pass me by.

Enjoy! And do be sure to drop me a line if you think you’re going to go for it – I’d love to see what ideas you bring to life.
