.XXX Web Addresses Now On Sale!

December 7, 2011

Get ready for UncleJohn’sBathroomReader.xxx – coming to your internet any day!

Oh, no, wait, really. That sounded funny in our heads – for about 1.23 seconds – but now that we think about it a bit more…no. Really. Uh uh. No with a capital N.O.

Back to the story:

Web addresses ending in .xxx have gone on general sale, as legal efforts continue to scupper the domain name.

Some 100,000 addresses have already been purchased in a restricted sale. The first pages went live in September.

Much more on the whole “.xxx” story here. (They’ve apparently become available to the general public only yesterday. And some colleges are apparently trying to get .xxx addresses.)

Exxxtra: When you think about it, if you owned a company that made, say, x-ray machines, you might want the .xxx web address for good and pure and perfectly non-pornographic reasons, wouldn’t you? “XraysR’Us.xxx!” Or if you were a lawyer that specialized in divorce cases: “GetItAllFromThe.xxx!” Or if you just turned thirty years old, and you wanted to celebrate that with a website – and you can only write in Roman numerals: “YayI’m.xxx!”

Okay, that last one would be, well, dumb, but I think you get our point…

P.S. We looked for a cool image to go along with this post, but when you put “xxx” in Google – you would not believe what happens! Oh dear oh dear oh dear…
