Domains and global fame
« on: November 22, 2010, 02:44:46 PM »
Like some of you on here I have a website. It's in my own name and it's a .co.uk registration because, quite simply, that's where I reside and work from.
I can't be a .gov or a .ac and I don't wanna be a .com thank you  ::)

Now some smart arsed Chinaman has decided that I'm going to be famous and is preparing to register me as:

.asia
.cn
.com.cn
.com.hk
.us
.eu
.fr
and, oh the glamour of it ... .it  ::)

I imagine that in due course he / they will try to sell myself back to me through some incestuous intrigue. B@stards  evil:

Alternatively, I could become famous  rubschin:
