Web3 and new top level domains - DNW Podcast #605 (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Many top level domains applied for this year have a connection to web3: think .crypto and .nft. But for many years, web3 companies have offered alt-root "domains" matching these top level domains on blockchain-based systems. What happens if one of those alt-root systems wants to integrate with the matching real top level domain? And how can TLDs add web3 functionality within ICANN's rules? That's the question an ICANN technical study group sought to answer this year. On today's show, one of the

.Ai end user domain stories - DNW Podcast #601 (opens the original)
Read excerpt
.AI is hot, but what do business owners think about them? On this show, I speak with two business owners who switched their businesses to .ai domains. One started with a .so and quickly realized the extension's limitations. The other started on a .com domain that ended up pigeonholing this business. First, I chat with Felix Ingla of Pedra . He launched his business on a .so domain and immediately ran into problems. He knew he needed to choose a different domain, and considered getPedra.com, whic
