Kiwi Geeks Seek Domain

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the besides-the-mines-of-moria dept.

Codeine writes "A group of professional Internet engineers and technicians from New Zealand are following the published procedure to obtain the delegation of GEEK.NZ from the NZ Domain Name Commissioner (DNC). If successful, GEEK.NZ would be New Zealand's twelfth second-level domain."

    I know this is slightly geeky story, but come on. So what if New Zealand wants a new domain name? What does this mean to the rest of the world? No offense to the Z'landers out there, but we don't really give a crap.

    Hi Yall,

    as a Kiwi Geek, of some small standing (well I am sitting typing...), I applaud & respect this move.

    What is funny, is to see how touchy some of the American's are, that this made the headlines. To this small & loud crowd I say-"get your heads out of the sand & have a look at the Global Situation & stop being so God Dam Amero-Centric. Get over yourselves!"

    Might not work, but hey, nothing ventured nothing gained.

    To the American Geeks who posted this wee misive, thanx guys! :-)

    Geek thangs happen all over this wonderful globe of ours, which would be better, without all the American Green House Gases (& hot air); but that is another subject. Hmmm.

    *BFN*

    Greek Geek, in New Zealand & loving IT.
