The Internet, In a Nutshell…

Since all of the good .COMs have been used up, the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (or ICANN for short) decided it was finally time to give the world some options. As one would naturally expect, .wtf was chief among the new top-level domain names to be made available to aspiring registrants and was added in 2014 alongside others such as .ink, .ninja, .kim, and .sexy. Supposedly, .ink is for tattooing, .ninja is for people with special expertise and skills, .kim is for people named Kim (huh?), and .sexy is for really good looking people. Of course, the name .wtf was taken from an improper Internet acronym that would never be repeated on this website.

Here is a glancing view of the World Wide Web in 2015:

It’s so nice to see the Internet taking bold steps forward. Personally, I can’t wait to register the domain CHADSPACE.POS as soon as it becomes available. I just hope that somebody doesn’t snap it up before I do!!
