Thanks to Niyi Ajao, I just learnt that the first .ng tld had been registered.
Drum roll……. www.thisday.ng. It was registered by Nduka Obaigbena, publisher of Thisday
The .ng It actually looks really beautiful.
Now to the Number one question
How the hell was it possible?! *
Considering a gazillion of us have been clamouring for this ever since the gave us the unattractive .com.ng and it is not yet available on the NIRA website (Official registrar/regulator). Hell, NIRA itself does not have a .ng
I can say with all confidence that the .ng will be one of the most popular tld’s in the whole world (Internet world that is.). Imagine the number of web apps ending with ‘ing’ that will be created.
- Googli.ng
- Facebooki.ng
- Tweeti.ng
- Sexti.ng 🙂
Now to the second most important question
Who gets i.ng?
*Nduka is a ‘big man’
Welcome to Nigeria, the land of endless possibilities. 🙂
Yes boss. You got it all right.
Na so life be na.
To him that has more will be given … u know the rest.
It’s so sad… so very sad.
Now that is somethi.ng.
This is so frustrati.ng. Are they planni.ng to privatize the internet?
In all honesty, it’s properly fucki.ng frustrati.ng (pardon my french!)
since I’m guessing all men are created equal how can one register a .ng name?
excellent article , i will get back here
