Hi guys,
I purchased a domain name about a year ago - derry.com
derry = a small city up the road from me (also known as Londonderry - long story + not getting into it).
anyways. it has a population of about 100 thousand. I have no intention of selling this domain for the next 20 years or so.
Due to the lack of availability of .com addresses, is there ever expected to be another domain extension that will become the number one?
Also, if anybody has any idea what a domain name for a town with 100k inhabitants - please give me a rough idea what it may be worth.
Thanks,
Dave |

you'd probably be best contacting Derry City's Council or the tourism board to see if they are interested in purchasing it. you would be talking a few hundred quid at the least |

steven king or one of his rich fans might want it. I'd put it on ebay just to see it there is any interest |
