New gTLD database goes live

ICANN finally released details of the new gTLDs program. There were a few surprises: Google and Amazon applied for 101 and 76 applications respectively. A number of new organizations also appeared with large portfolios of generic names. Now they will have to duke it out with others to find out who gets what. Shortly after the release of information, .Nxt published its database of new gTLD applicants and applications to provide a more useful and user-friendly version of the information.
