ICANN to open up new domain extensions
Now this is interesting:
ICANN Expected to Widely Expand Domain Names
.nyc, .bank could be new Internet suffixes
New internet domains: what do they mean for me?
Unfortunately, no mention of .woot or .ftw. apaddedcell.ftw!

Yeah I just read about that. Sounds interesting.
Although it will be too expensive for the 'little people', which is a shame as I would have liked to have my own TLD available to sell domain names to others.
I guess it will also open up a new can of worms for websites and companies trying to keep people from using their company name in domain names.
BTW, your "apaddedcell.ftw" might have a different meaning to bikers

I wonder if there is a way to automatically get the most common names when they go live. I'm sure the cyber squatters are already on it though.

Who needs all this stuff? I highly doubt there will be a great demand, evem .mobi doesn't seem to be as popular as it was predicted.
This is one of the reasons registrars offer discounts on .mobi I know eurodns.com does it.
