Default calgarypuck.xxx?? Do it photon! Triple X domains go live today

.xxx domains went live today and looks like a lot of people are scrambling to reserve the smuttiest URLs..

I wonder if the big companies have first dibs on their .com urls, or if its all open territory- i would think there are a few URLs that could fetch a nice sum...

Oh, move to tech talk if mods want- thought it was more of an off-topic

Well, I think this would be bad for all of us.

I guarantee every IT guy is programming bans on any and all .xxx URLs as we speak, if it hasnt been done already.

CP would die because none of us would be able to access it from work.

Granted, productivity might skyrocket, Calgary would make a fortune and then we'd all have to go and tell the Huffington Post to eat a bag of dicks.

a whole bag? are they individually wrapped or are they just flopping around in the bag like a stack of asparagus?

At $85 a pop probably not. I assume any of the good ones have been scooped up during the initial accredited adult providers grace period. And any copyrighted names (EG: Microsoft.xxx) would be privy to copyright/squatting laws.

I had the same thought myself, but the price it to steep for spec names for my blood.

Do you know more about this?
Is that to say getting a name like that isn't even worth it cause they're somehow protected from it now?

I took the urge and registered one of similar style

I really want to squat on calgarypuck.xxx, but I am not entirely sure what that entails, or actually means in this particular case.
