I thought I had seen this discussed here, but maybe not.

"*.cc" is for the Cocos Islands, where, apparently, not a lot of web
sites are created. I guess this means if yahoo.com is already taken I
can go out and register yahoo.cc?

The cash-poor island nation of Tuvalu is doing the same thing, selling
their "*.tv" to a company who then plans to offer it, naturally, to
anyone in the television industry.
