Coming soon to Paris: www.strike.taxi

Another Taxi strike in Paris
I am searching for reasons why French Taxis can be any famous...but I am sorry: I don't find anything to say. Live details of this new strike are available here for anybody interested.

Coming: the .TAXI new gTLD
The Sunrise Period for .TAXI domain names started last Tuesday, 9 of June, 2015 and will end on Saturday, 8 August, 2015. At that date (more or less), it becomes possible for anyone to register a domain name ending in ".taxi" instead of (for example) ".com". French and worldwide travelers flying through Paris airports are so annoyed by these strikes that I believe it is important to remind that, there is no restriction with .TAXI new domain names.

A few suggestions
If I doubt anybody will consider registering "grève.taxi" ("grève" means "strike") since the word carries an accent, I have no doubt that someone will consider doing something with "greve.taxi" in French and "strike.taxi" in English. I am almost even able to guarantee traffic developed on subdomains such as city.strike.taxi...starting with...no...no name ("Paris" is a Trademark).

On last suggestion for the SCDTP
The SCDTP stands for "Le syndicat de défense des conducteurs du taxi parisien" (the Parisian Taxi Union). Keep an eye on .TAXI domain names because if you don't...Uber is probably watching these for you.

I questioned a Club Manager

I asked a famous club manager about changing his domain name to a .club domain name and it turned to an interesting discussion.

Extract: "It started with the same good old talk about Search Engine Optimization ("SEO"), losing positioning on the first page of Google results… If I clearly understood that reasoning on the part of a small club, I think it is a non sense for a club that already has some notoriety because notoriety is considered in Google search engine's algorithm".

Why did you register Jeux.club ?

Jeux.club : interview du titulaire

Suite à un échange avec le titulaire du nom de domaine, celui-ci nous a expliqué son choix: non seulement Pierre-Eli Normandeau est fan de jeux vidéos mais aussi, grand fan des nouveaux noms de domaines. L'opportunité s’étant présentée à ce développeur de site Internet (le site s'appelait Natom.ca), Pierre-Eli nous a indiqué que le nom de domaine Canadien - le “.ca” est l’extension de noms de domaine pour le Canada - n’était plus cohérent car il y avait autant de visiteurs en provenance de France que du Canada or il n’existe pas d’extension Internet pour la langue Française dans sa globalité.
