.Wed, .XYZ and Donuts featured in NPR fresh TLD story

Planet Money features some of the people behind fresh TLD applications.

NPR aired a story on Planet Money this morning regarding fresh top level domain names. I thought the story was well done.

It features Adrienne McAdory of .Wed, Daniel Negari of .XYZ, Daniel Schindler of Donuts and domain attorney Thomas Brackey.

It takes a good angle on the story by featuring some of the actual applicants and their story. It starts with Adrienne McAdory, who applied for .wed. (For her sake and those that gave her money to start .wed, I hope she reconsiders her business model soon.)

It’s definitely worth a listen:
