Don't know if I should be posting this - but wanted to share it with you:

The British Academy of Film and Television Arts - aka Bafta called me today.

They wanted Bafta.net at registration cost.

I said yeah ok

Well they do have an international trademark

Not worth the hassle is it ?

BTW I know http://arbiter.wipo.int/domains/ would cost them upto $3000

i definetely wouldnt have given in so easily. We beat those Brits once, in 1776, and we can do it again.

Hey Andrew - where's your sense of adventure?

Anyway - you could have been planning to do a website for that famous shop "Bafta Fruits of Peckham Rye" !

the WIPO costs $299. ask them for $200, a bargain.

someone correct me if im wrong, but WIPO costs like $2000 or $3000, not $299.
