On October 8, Interlink announced that its subsidiary, Interlink System Creation Research Institute, has applied to ICANN for the top-level domain '.neko'.
Top-level domains are strings like '.com' and '.jp' that appear at the end of URLs. The company, which submitted the application, has outlined a vision to operate 'neko' (meaning cat) as a new domain. If realized, it could be developed as an address for individuals, organizations, and services related to cats.
Going forward, the process will involve evaluating the application content and proceeding with procedures such as contracting. The timing of when the .neko domain will actually become available and its registration conditions will depend on the progress of the review.
Meow.
