You guys think this is real? .xxx domain extension

[Sprite-]

With ".xxx" finally joining the ranks of top-level domains including ".com" and ".edu," decades of speculation about the impact of this new Web destination will finally be put to the test.

I think this is hilarious. Typing .xxx will be really weird (if this is real...however I don't know if I can take this seriously).

I guess it'll be great for blocking these websites...but I kind of find this whole thing a bit silly.

Anyone else like how .biz is for shady businesses who were too cheap to get .com?

This. But I don't see how you find it 'silly'. Just seems like an average attempt to group porn sites.

I just feel like it's completely unnecessary.
.xxx doesn't really sound professional.

I suspect sounding professional isn't terribly high on their list of priorities.

That may be true.
I don't know about anyone else, but if I ever saw a website that had an .xxx extension, the first thing I'd think is "VIRUS" and I wouldn't click on it.
