Internet will get brand new addresses which will make it tougher to remember the domain names. was it TNerd.com, .jobs, .hyd, .paris, .nyc or what?

That’s what is about to happen. If the 21 member ICANN committee at meeting decides to vote in favour of the proposal of having ’s with means you can have a domain.anything which includes .XXX which was rejected by in the past.

"Individuals will be able to register a domain based on their own name, or any other string of letters, as long as they can show a "business plan and technical capacity". Among others Berlin (.berlin) is trying to strongly push the proposal for approval to have a .berlin.

Start thinking of all the fancy TLD’s you want to register and start registering them before anyone else does. Registrations will start early next year.
