Many people navigate in a way that suggests they believe .XXX existed all along. Few strings other than .XXX share this attribute. ICM Registry?s success in tapping this well of traffic should create long-term opportunity for registrants of all stripes and color.

My chance meeting with Stuart Lawley at the 2005 ICANN meeting in Vancouver, and his tenacity and big-hearted altruistic outlook, gave me the confidence that this space would be run in a way that treats its registrants fairly. I believe .XXX will make a great accompaniment to the .COM version of adult sites and that one day .XXX could eclipse the .COM version of name-brands for adult sites.?
