Nice, .foo domains are open for general registration now! But there's a problem! I don't need yet another domain! But still, I am trying to find a reason to register one! Clearly, I am a Domain junkie.

This is a brilliant self-demonstrating example of how the new .zip TLD is going to be used!

Having a domain name and website for your project is great. You don't want to own the entire online identity of your project.

But you should stay away from the .io TLD:

  1. It's a country TLD that's disputed, and while it may not go anywhere…
  2. It's getting more and more expensive, which for projects is a problem.

The best TLD for FOSS projects is probably the .org TLD.
Or, if stuck on .io, at least pre-pay it for years in advance.

I just found out one of my domain registrars, register.to, no longer exists, due to the death of it's owner earlier this year.

It appears their billing system is still trying to charge customers cards though.

My domain provider (123-reg) is screwing up its service so I need a new one 😭 I need:

  • email forwarding (no mailbox required)
  • catch-all email forwarding
  • DNS control (A records)
  • UK or Europe-based

Fasthosts.co.uk look promising, anyone used them?
