Unmet Fundamental Requisites for a Successful gTLDs Program - New pioneering ideas are not always welcomed or requested by consumers. I outline three such examples: 1. The car. "If I had asked my customers what they wanted, they would have said a faster horse," Henry Ford once said, or so goes the story. The quote has never been verified, but what it says is true. In 1903 most consumers gave little sign of wanting to buy cars. The Ford Model A began rolling out and all that changed. 2. ATMs. In the late 1970s, many people were still suspicious of impersonal ... read more ...

YourBrand.sucks — Unless You Act Now! - As the INTA Annual Meeting winds down, one memory for me that certainly stuck out was an on-site ad campaign revolving around the new “.sucks” top-level domain (“TLD”). Depending on whom you ask, it’s either ingenious or diabolical. Just outside the San Diego Convention Center, the throngs of orange lanyard-wearing conference attendees were greeted by some rather cheery folks holding white signs with the “.sucks” TLD laid over some speech bubbles. That nice lady who graciously ... read more ...
