For the great .info drop — Get ready

If you use a drop service to catch expiring domains, get ready for the list of available drops to balloon over the next few months! The .info list will be flooded with domains that people registered for FREE regarding this time last year. You may recall that .info registry owner Afilias started offering 25 free domains to all comers. Most of the .info domains registered were subpar, since all of the good ones were by now taken. And I suspect most owners of these free domains will let them expire.
