    If Julius Caesar were here, he would probably ask for
    .came
    .saw
    .conquered

    or in Latin
    .veni
    .vidi
    .vici

    What’s surprising is they didnt ask for “.www” or “.gle” or simply “.e”

    .est would have a potential. Except that Estonia would probably want to have it too.

    EST.ME resells subdomains and emails like dear.est.me and dear@est.me.

    Google was probably thinking about repeating this trick with .est. Who knows…
