Open NIC - Top Level Domains

Top Level Domains

Currently, OpenNIC supports the following TLDs:

.bbs
aimed toward (Telnet-style) bulletin board systems and related Web sites.
.dyn
dynamic IPs.
.free
operated by FreeNIC, the .free tld provides namespace, certificate authority, and other services to encourage the non-commercial use of the internet.
.fur
furry fandom-related sites.
.geek
chartered for use by geek-oriented sites, including anything of a personal or hobbyist nature. This description is deliberately vague to reflect the huge range of interests that might qualify.
.opennic.glue
internal architectural, as in root server administration and peering purposes. The only domain names that exist for this TLD are those that are used for each system on the peer.
.gopher
sites using the Gopher protocol.
.indy
independent news, media, and entertainment.
.ing
fun TLD. Further details to be confirmed.
.micro
micronations and their entities. Recent and not widely used yet.
.neo
emo subculture with influences of technology, music, and other forms of multimedia.
.null
miscellaneous non-commercial individual sites.
.oss
open-source software.
.oz
Australian-related content, without the residency requirements of .au.
.parody
venue for non-commercial parody work. Having a TLD designated to works of parody attempts to remove claims that a website could be mistaken for a business site, and thus reduces the possibility of claims of trademark infringement.
.pirate
created as a reaction against internet censorship.

Famous quotes containing the words top, level and/or domains:

    She might have been old once and now, miraculously, young again—but with the memory of that other life intact. She seemed to know the world down there in the dark hall and beyond for what it was. Yet knowing, she still longed to leave this safe, sunlit place at the top of the house for the challenge there.
    Paule Marshall (b. 1929)

    To Time it never seems that he is brave
    To set himself against the peaks of snow
    To lay them level with the running wave,
    Nor is he overjoyed when they lie low,
    But only grave, contemplative and grave.
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    I shall be a benefactor if I conquer some realms from the night, if I report to the gazettes anything transpiring about us at that season worthy of their attention,—if I can show men that there is some beauty awake while they are asleep,—if I add to the domains of poetry.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
