The new gTLD info for Thursday, April 28th

I sometimes receive nice messages, here is one I received this morning from RightSide. These messages come more often I noticed and they coincide with the increasing number of subscribers to the gTLD.club Newlsetter. I am more than happy to see that new gTLDs start to interest the general public. Below is the message I received from George:
I just wanted to tell you how much I enjoy your gtld.club blog, which I try to read every day. I'm relatively new to the industry (going on three years now) and I have to credit your blog with helping me to build a foundation and expand my understanding in the area that interests me the most -- raising public awareness of and sparking imaginative interest in new gTLDs through creative communications campaigns and good storytelling.
