    Google objecting to generic strings like .Kids, .Homes, .Games and .Cars is absurd.

    Oh no, they might be deprived of their monopoly if they are not allowed to own generic terms.

    Hello MHB,

    There is far too much Bribe Money already let out for this not to happen, gTLDs are coming.

    Take Heart .COM Holders !

    With the advent of the new gTLDS being introduced, its effect will severely impact the Search Engine Marketing Sector. According to MIT (Mass. Inst.Tech.) type-In traffic will be expanded rapidly and will be common place. Consumers are very reluctant to change and there are studies to prove that they will avoid doing business on a non-.COM site. This splintering and dividing of the Search Engine Market bodes well for a brilliant future, for Pure Play Generic .COM Profit Centers. M I T foresees Type-Ins, We foresee a seachange shift into .COM Profit Centers.

    Gratefully, Jeff Schneider (Contact Group) (Metal Tiger)
