How many .ECOs are there?
Wednesday, June 17. 2009
I'm still wondering...
I've just been made aware of a second .ECO initiative. I've talked before about Dot Eco LLC's project, which scored a major coup when it got former US vice president Al Gore to support it.
The second .ECO is championed by a for-profit Canadian company called Big Room Inc. Although the three founders aren't ICANN regulars, they are backed by at least 2 domain industry insiders: the inevitable Laga/Deloitte and Afilias.
So 2 .ECOs, plus the other eco friendly TLD project .GREEN, that's a lot of people vying for the same seat! You could almost be forgiven for thinking that being green is all the rage at the moment…
