ZDNet reports that the Internet's real estate may soon be expanding, with the proposed addition of up to nine new top-level domains, including .jobs, .xxx, .travel and .mail.
Ten organizations have submitted detailed proposals to the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN) for the rights to sell the potentially lucrative domain-name suffixes.
With porn being such a touchy issue, I can see the .xxx domain being completely banned by all schools, universities, and even entire countries... for about 1 day, before the porn kings find a loophole somewhere to get it happening anyways :S
