Does anyone remember the "every man" something or other Japanese website with funny WebGL / Three.js experiments from back in ~2015? It had a character builder and fun interactivity, and I could have sworn I learned about it on HN. I think Adult Swim briefly bought it and then shuttered it. It had a really silly domain name.
Very "del.icio.us"-esque
Got it the night before .codes released and have had others try to buy it off me a few times. Never!
Anybody else whose name or moniker is a FQDN?
repo.new (new repository page)
gist.new (new gist page)
See: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Country_code_top-level_domain
sci.app
and
vga.ai
^^
Some good ones I can think of:
archive.org (does what it says)
ifconfig.me (same name as the tool)
noise.fm (I want this for a personal project but came in late)
js.org
radio.garden
ob https://files.ohai.social/media_attachments/files/111/755/74...
I took notion too long to transition from that .so domain to the .com.
Well played!
I also needed to build another app to fetch and resize the images, and found it neat to use the following:
In term of users the service never went anywhere and it's quite dated now but it doesn't cost much to keep it online and it's open source.
le.ctu.re is also a viable option ;)
Also this reminds of del.icio.us (not sure about the placement of that first dot, though). Epic domain and legendary service. RIP!
I used to get SO many "ecard" receipts from people who thought they were being clever by putting the "From:" as youknowwho@youknowwhat.com
It was so many emails, in fact, that I had to change email providers because they were threatening to kick me off from the traffic. That, and every other spammy email system that existed because that email address was in every single mailing list ever haha.
The URL does redirect to the mail service but not sure if I'm remembering wrong or she finally got an offer even she couldn't pass.
First world problems :-)
This is about the domains and not the websites!
It's for creating little invites for small events. Each event gets a https://invit.ing/ short link. No plans to make it profitable, just fun to build :)
I do get frustrated sometimes at the "omnibar" because of its inability to determine if I want to search for something or go to a url. It is especially irksome because the TLDs keep getting extended and I can't keep track anymore.
