.ME domen i GoDaddy

Crnogorski savet za .me domen doneo je 17.01.2008 odluku o vrednovanju ponuda za agenta registracije .me domena. Pobedila je ponuda grupe kompanija u kojoj je i poznata kompanija GoDaddy. GoDaddy upravlja sa preko 26 miliona domena i kako kažu registruju, obnavljaju ili transferuju domen u proseku svake sekunde. Ovde je saopštenje za štampu povodom ovog događaja kompanije GoDaddy, a ovde odluka crnogorskog saveta za upravljanje .me domenom.
.me domain je poprilično zanimljiv budući da osim svog očiglednog značenja na našem i engleskom jeziku može dobro da se kombinuje i na primer na španskom ("amar.me" = "voli me") i italijanskom ("secondo.me" = "po mom mišljenju"). Dakle, Crnogorci mogu da se raduju mnoštvu zakupljenih domena i redovnim godišnjim prihodima bez velikog truda dok mi sa domenom .rs nismo bili tako sretne ruke.
Na engleskom jeziku ima mnogo mogućnosti za dobro kombinovanje sa .me ekstenzijom. Plus ne treba zaboraviti na veliku popularnost zamenica "i" (iPhone, iPod, iTunes), "you" (YouTube), "we tj. wii" (Nintendo Wii), tako da sigurno mnogi vide veliki potencijal u ekstenziji "me". Evo par desetina primera koji uključuju .me domain i koji mi padaju na pamet:
about.me add.me and.me ask.me bite.me book.me buy.me call.me click.me change.me do.me dress.me drink.me drive.me eat.me entertain.me email.me explain.me feed.me feel.me fly.me follow.me fool.me for.me forgive.me f**k.me google.me give.me help.me host.me kick.me kiss.me look.me love.me lucky.me mail.me make.me marry.me pardon.me pay.me pick.me poor.me post.me pimp.me play.me please.me read.me register.me remove.me rent.me save.me select.me send.me sms.me shake.me shock.me show.me sell.me sing.me take.me tease.me teach.me tell.me to.me try.me use.me vote.me watch.me we.me wii.me win.me why.me with.me write.me who.me you.me
Evo i par kombinacija na srpskom:
gledaj.me iznajmi.me kupi.me ljubi.me nagradi.me oseti.me pojedi.me poljubi.me popi.me prodaj.me registruj.me uzmi.me vidi.me voli.me zabavi.me zavedi.me ...
Dakle, treba očekivati prilično interesovanje za kupovinu ovih i sličnih domena kada počnu da se prodaju. Trenutno ih nije moguće registrovati preko GoDaddy strane.

.me was a pure lack for Montenegro. Government of Montenegro now has unique chance to promote development of eService: Made in Monte... 'Booking' some valuable properties would provide jump start for potential local entrepreneurs.
Looking for long term benefit not some quick cash is what Governments should be focused on, but ... we are talking about Montenegro. For Tuvalu with population of 12k quick cash for .tv registrations made a difference, but Montenegro story is different.

At least, let's hope there will be some advantage for citizens of Montenegro during initial process of .me registrations. As far as I know that would be the first time that being Montenegrin pays off ;)

@zeljko:

You mention quick cash for Tuvalu. I read Tuvalu gets 1 milion $ every 3 months for the use of their ccTLD (is this reliable data?). It is not a fortune but still it is a constant and solid income for such a small country.

I am wondering how will start of registration for .me look like. Especially if we have in mind bad experiences from the start of public registration of .eu domains.
