.art URL words you can think about using
We are told that the introduction of industry-focused top level domains such as .car, .beef, and .skank are going to change the face of the internet as we know it today. The art world mailing list service-cum-publication e-Flux believes this strongly and has raised the $185,000 not to buy, but just to bid for the .art domain, assuring all artists that if e-Flux wins, the domain will only be used as a force for good.
So, if e-Flux wins, you need to start thinking of a cheeky URL a la del.icio.us or Art.sy so that you can be a player in the .art world. Ryz and I already have dibs on Golfc.art. Using an online Scrabble helper, andrej offers the list below of potential .art words. Start thinking about reserving yours now. Don't get left behind!
