.Me is still continuing to receive Interest amongst the domainers.

The forums were full of .me buzz, and the chatrooms were a crazy place to be in. Domain names were being registered in a frenzy. Tempers were flying high because of GoDaddy messing up again (tell me something new).

I’ve seen it happen before, at the .asia fanfare. And then it all dies. Same happened with .maybe (oops .mobi i mean). Right now, with all the hype about new extensions and stuff, the last thing I would want is to get stuck with a worthless extension for 2 years.
Lets see how it all turns out to be. This should be fun
