Why would people use a.tiny/t or a.tiny/ when they can use  is.gd/a ?

The TLD would be otherwise worthwhile for OpenNIC-only services, but if it's supposed to be used by the grand public, then something with the minimum amount of characters would be better (dumb example: a.b)

What?

You want to make a URL shortener TLD but you want to make it longer than what's already out there? If it's not one one letter long, don't make it.

I think a TLD purely for a url shortener is a bit overkill, but that’s just me.

 

In other news, now that I have moved and are buying more servers / ips I plan to focus more on .key/.p2p in the near future, will probably talk to you guys more about it on IRC though.

But .micro does not work like shortener script.

Like before, I don't have infrastructure to operate TLD, I'll share with you my suggestion.

 

.tiny / .ant

 

What it will be?

- TLD for shortentning links, like - as1.tiny (random characters). Shortening service will be at register.tiny.

 

How it will work?

- Like other TLDs.

 

I hope you'll like it :D
