The .ME Registry recently announced that they had registered more than 100,000 domain names in just over 2 weeks of opening up domain registration to the general public.
According the the Registrar, more than a thousand auctions are open for popular .ME domains. A couple completed auctions of note were “lasvegas.me” for $15,105 and “chatwith.me” for $15,035.
I am a little suprised as to how well .ME is doing - however I still think that in the long run .ME will probably have about as much name recognition as .info, .biz or .mobi — which is to say a lot less name recognition than .com.
