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’
