Hoi.
hi i read in the actually PC-Professionell an Adv.from Strato.de privat user could register an own TLD
original text: DynDNS: machen sie ihren eigenen PC aus dem internet erreichbar, bei strato sogar unter ihrer persoenlichen Top-Level-Domain
Yess! Now I can register ylz.sex :-))
I want .semmel registered!
an anyoning marketing joke or an inkomepetent writing ?....
Think of ICANN. The possibly mean to use any usual second-level domain name for their implementation of dyn-DNS updates. Not only subdomain like 'www'. Silly ad!
Oh yes. Pretty stupid.
Or they do register private TLDs, but propagate them only in their DNS servers. So everyone has to use their name servers to resolv those TLDs.
"Solutions" like this existed for years. AlterNIC and OpenNIC, just to name two of these alternate namespaces. How do you explain to your grand-mother, she has to enter strange numbers in a hidden field somewhere in the depths of her computer, just to surf to http://www.hallo.oma/ ?
But maybe we are wrong altogether and Strato bought ICANN..? =:-)
