The latest post on ‘ReadWriteWeb’ is titled “Why The Boston Globe Applied for the .Boston Domain”.

Dan Rowinski says, “Sorting through the list of applicants for ICANN’s new generic top-level domains (gTLDs), a couple things pop out. For one, Amazon and Google are being extremely aggressive in applying for domains. Many media properties have applied for their brands, such as ABC and CBS. But one application uniquely sticks out: The Boston Globe has applied for the domain .Boston. This is the only geographic location for which a media company has applied. Why would the 140-year-old news outlet want to own a top-level domain?”.
