Next year, the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN) will open up its list of generic Top Level Domains (gTLDs) to applications from anybody with the $185,000 evaluation fee.
Would-be gTLD owners have a bit of time to put on their thinking caps—the application period runs from January 12 to April 12, 2012, after which time ICANN will publish all the domains that were requested and people can raise objections to any of them.
