Want a .me domain name?  Don’t worry, it will be available soon thanks to Montenegro’s MeNet.  I don’t know why but someone out there got the crazy idea that people will want a .me domain name.

From the article:

According to a post found on Jothan Frake’s blog and Dutch Telecom (subscription required), the ccTLD .me will now be run by a join [sic] operation between Afilias, Godaddy and Montenegro’s MeNet.

The .me domain name is the country-code for Montenegro, but has obvious commercial appeal. The country had issued a public invitation to bid, which according to Frakes received 3 bids : Neustar, Verisign Registry Services and the winning bidders.

Domain name ideas are probably racing through your head right now.  Love.me or Fuck.me for dating sites.  Give.me for whatever.  Endless possibilities.  You better get out your pocket book because all these domain names and more will already be reserved and auctioned off to the highest bidder [Ed. probably, almost certain].  We wonder what the citizens of Montenegro think of all this.  To all the Montenegroens out there, what do you think?
