What's in a domain name? Google, Amazon pay up to find out

You gotta love ICANN. Every time the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers does anything, it's usually a cause for amusement.

Last week, what passes for the sole official governing body of the InterWebs released nearly 2,000 proposed new generic Top Level Domains, along with the names of the 1,100 organizations that bid for the new gTLDs. It also released the names, email addresses, and phone numbers for all of these deep-pocketed groups onto the Web. Oops.
