.me Extends Personalization of the Internet
Posted by Caycee Boyce , Thursday, 17 July 2008
Since the creation of social networking the internet has been the medium of choice for expressing one’s personality. With last month’s introduction of the .me domain, the country code top-level domain (ccTLD) of the southern European country, , the web is now more personal than ever!

Starting this Thursday, after the close of the sunrise period for trademark holders, Sedo will be one of the first secondary domain market sites to offer .me domains both for sale and auction. Sedo will also be ready to monetize .me domains just as the new ccTLD becomes available to the general public on a first come, first serve basis. “We’ve seen tremendous interest in .me from every corner of the globe,” said Predrag Lesic, the registry’s executive director. “The .me extension clearly offers opportunities to develop catchy phrases and add personality to your Web presence – including personal sites as well as business applications associated with products, brands and services. Now is the time to get in on the ground floor with a great name.”

More than 70 registrars from all over the world will be offering .me registration. After Open Registration begins July 17th domain names receiving more than one application will go to an auction process, with Sedo ready to assist with domain acquisitions as well. With the launch of .me Sedo is poised to help you acquire the ideal domain to express yourself or your business online.
