This is a God send whether accidental or planned, Afilias,
WIPO and ICANN will all make out like bandits.There will be a second Landrush
(LR2) for the recovered names in the new year and this one will be the real deal.
They
love the exposure and the publicity this is all generating now because LR2 will become
that much bigger.
Think about it, 25,000 name have already been registered, 2000
of which are the most desirable generic English words.
If each one of those names
attracts 1000 new pre-registrations (I'm betting it will be a .biz like lottery)
at $5 a pop we are talking about a possible 10 million dollar event!!
Would you
miss out on this kind of action? Biggest question is, was it all planned or a dumb
accident? The answer can be easily found if the Afilias executives have a performance
bonus clause in their contracts???
