Re: More Talk of a a Federalized Web

Good point, Chris.  But just because the web is an international machine of 
mystery doesn't negate the benefits of having a google.nasa site AND a 
google.esa site (the latter the Euro Space Agency) - there would be a plethora 
of new TLD's in this scenario - in the hundreds...and all for great measure!

IMO :o)

Federalised would be nice, except the web is international. A better start would 
be forcing the use of .us for ALL US domains to level the playing field to the 
standard as written.

don't have to worry about, because I'm not at .com, I'm on the federal web!
