I thought this was very interesting, and very telling of how much we as humans, no matter where we are from, are dominated by thoughts of sex, and are a generally very sexual species.  And apparently Asian countries are really no different, because with the launch of the new dot Asia extension on domain names which will be tailored specifically for those that do not speak English, but rather an Asian language, the predicted most popular and sought after domain name will be Sex.asia . 

I’m not really sure what it would be used for, perhaps male sexual enhancement products, or female sexual enhancement products for sale, or just a general website that talks about sex and sexual health.  I remember hearing a while back that pornographic websites and material is actually illegal in some Asian countries, so I’m not sure what else this domain name could potentially be used for in Asia, other than something that would be sexually educational or selling something that is a sexual nature. 

They are not sure yet what other dot asia domain names will be in high demand, but the landmark domain name sale is set to take place on Ocotober 9th, and it looks like applications may be taken now for domain names.  Wonder what they do if there are multiple applicants for one domain name?  Perhaps then it goes to a bidding, or they may do some type of lottery drawing.  I bet they take bids, because some of those names would probably go for a quite a bit of money to a high bidder like a corporation who has a lot of interest in getting that name.
