Did I not see somewhere this past weekend that the Scottish Government does plan to purchase a .sco domain and start using it for official web sites?

As for the "dot anything" future, I had a good kvetch about that on my blog; and the more I think about it, the more I realise it's like a virtual Mutual Assured Destruction. Big businesses will spend more and more money dickering over ".grocery", ".grocer", ".groceries", ".tescogrocieries", ".asdagroceries"., and so on and so on until, as the computer once said, the only winning move is not to play.

I think there's already way to many out there and as Scotland are part of the UK its already on a non starter (sorry SNP members)

Dont know if you guys know this already but an interesting story is about the 2 guys from Hawaii that made a deal with the Western Samoan government and bought all their TLD's, then tried to sell them as .ws meaning .website. They didnt do very well lol.

There may well be too many out there and you're right; Scotland is, for the moment, part of the UK. Whether it remains so has, however, little to do with whether people are members of the SNP or not. :rolleyes:

Hi Tfgtv

Didnt mean just SNP ofc. Personally I would like to see scottish independence and if they achieved that would then expect to see a TLD but the point I was making was I don't see them leaving the UK atm and unless they did I cant see a TLD being considered
