SEDO and the .ME Registry have partnered for an auction of several premium .ME domain names.
The auction, which starts February 2, 2012 (mark your calendars), will feature nearly 180 .me domain names including Wifi.me, 411.me, Bar.me and many others.
The .me top level domain launched in July 2008 but as of July 2011 it had registered only 530,000 domains. While the .me extension never really gained mass appeal as many domain name industry insiders wanted and expected it to, there have been some noteworthy successes.
- The About.me site offers anyone the ability to create a personal splash page complete with social network integration.
- Social sharing and bookmarking service Delicious is using D.me to let users save and email URL links.
- Payment service Visa is planning to use V.me for its digital wallet initiative.
- Social network site Formspring.me is by far the most visited dotME domain.
- Two of the most intriguing .me extensions, Call.me and Connect.me, remain in private beta.

Availability of .XXX domain names will begin early next week (December 6th, 2011).
While a lot of attention has already been given to this extension, which was initially developed for the adult industry, many have not yet reserved their brand names but are waiting on the general availability next week. If you want a head start, you can need to pre-register and reserve it.
Below you will find a list of fifteen registrars where you can buy/reserve them now or next week and how much they will set you back. All prices are in U.S. dollars. The three highlighted entries are offering the lowest pricing as it stands today with three days remaining.
Expect a lot of attention next week, but with pricing around $100 most digital Web workers likely will not be acquiring a .XXX domain.
How about you? Will you (or have you already) buy a .XXX?
