    |  Re: Why today most of the single or double word domains are not available? Yes, but still i think there must be a way to sort it out. Imagine, instead of a prefix www. if it starts with wwww.yahoo.com (4 Ws) instead of 3 (world wide web wide) and then we can have all single word domains which have been registered already. Just imagine, what the other people can buy!!! all domains like internet.com, yahoo.com, google.com and all others will be free if somebody can add just another "w" to a prefix "www". Hope somebody takes it seriously and think over it. I am just spreading out my ideas and thoughts to help the people. Thanks for keeping this topic hot. |

I hate to spoil your idea. If you like you can do wwww. WWW is a sub domain and is one of the standard ones for the web. As you probably know you can set up all kinds of sub domains for your domain but that does not let you grab a tld like Google just by adding 4 wwww. The only way that this would work is if the ICANN would take over this naming convention as well. Just think of the chaos with all the sub domains already out their. I guess the only help is to create new tld like .forum .pvt .child .parent but these have never really caught on as much and/or been widely accepted by the masses. Most people remember a name and just try with .com behind it and if that does not work they go to Master GOOGLE.  | |

| Re: Why today most of the single or double word domains are not available? You still need the original yahoo domain to use wwww (four Ws).

| Re: Why today most of the single or double word domains are not available? May be you did not understand what i meant to say. "WWW" (3 Ws) did not start or born by god, someone must have invented and its not a natural element that can not be changed. It has been made by a human and there is NO RULE for human-made things. just like having a www.google.com why cant we think to have wwww.google.com? If a person who invented www. (3 Ws) want to make wwww. (4 Ws) then i am sure that person can make this! And we should all fight for that to give everyone freedom to have what they want! Quote:

| Re: Why today most of the single or double word domains are not available? I can think of one reason I would not want wwww (4Ws). it is that people are lazy. that is why we do not need to enter www anymore when entering an address into the address bar. That is the same reason why I don't think it's a good idea. How will the computer decide which site You want www.goggle.bs or wwww.goggle.bs? Besides I can think of a number of great single word domains that are still available. And we will never run out because with time words change so people who grab popular words in bulk now to sell them 10 years later might not be all that savvy. |

| Re: Why today most of the single or double word domains are not available? "detoam" - your reply is fair enough. I would not like to even type "www" in my browser rather pressing, CTRL + ENTER. How about making it CaSe SEnSiTive? Wow... we can have ("google" = 6 characters x 6 = 36) variations of google.com! So we can have Google.Com, gOogle.Com, goOgle.com, gooGle.Com, googLe.Com, googlE.com and so as multiplied by 6 = 36 different domains of just 1 word... Think.. how easy it would be for the people to register their company! |

| Re: Why today most of the single or double word domains are not available? That might be a good idea. there are some examples (although with a hangover I have hard time thinking of any) of sites that have case sensitive urls. BTW do not type in goggle.com. I don't know if that site is still up, but it is a seriously harmful site. |

| Re: Why today most of the single or double word domains are not available? Who is that person/company who is really controlling over all TLDs or domain naming etc...? Any idea? |

| Re: Why today most of the single or double word domains are not available? It's a monopoly. ICANN has the total control over it and they say what can and cannot be done. M$crosoft anyone? To me they are just as much of a crooks. Noone should have a monopoly on anything. Especially when it is in such a high demand. |

| Re: Why today most of the single or double word domains are not available? it's more of a question whether anyone would be willing to go up against an international corporation. Pretty much every government outthere is backing them. |
