Internet Group OKs 'Xxx' Web Addresses - Yahoo! News

Internet Group OKs 'Xxx' Web Addresses - Yahoo! News: "WASHINGTON - The Internet's primary oversight body approved a plan Wednesday to create a virtual red-light district, setting the stage for pornographic Web sites to use new addresses ending in 'xxx.'

The Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers said it would begin negotiations with ICM Registry Inc., run by British businessman Stuart Lawley, to iron out technical issues and prices for the new Web addresses."


Reminds me of what's going to happen when the .travel domain becomes available. Creating more segmentation (more choices) instead of everything
being a .com, is a good thing.
