Many Linkers are probably aware of this, but I happened to come across a list 
of top-level domains and was amazed to find there must be hundreds - see 
http://data.iana.org/TLD/tlds-alpha-by-domain.txt

I know the <.sydney> TLD has been mentioned here before, but there's even 
<.sex> & <.dad>!!  Who carries the responsibility for administering these?  I 
naievely thought TLDs were only entrusted to authorities with national scope 
and <.gifts> would be a second-level domain at least.

The whole administrative structure seems to me to have been devalued.  Why not 
language-dependent TLDs, for example <.sex> and <.geschlechtsverkehr>?
