Looks very interesting, but I wonder if it would be ok for seo or instead might negatively affect it.

Yup, and no need to fixate on flipping names or parking either.

Two thoughts:

1. The best keyword .ws's are certainly more desirable than many .com's out there. I'd much rather have stocks.ws than a lot of second tier .com's.

2. What if encouraging greater awareness and popularity for certain currently less known or less popular tld's only enhanced .com's value and people's general awareness of and interest in domains? What if promoting some of them had the opposite effect to that one might normally expect? The world is filled with countless examples of how the existence of less valued or desired alternatives only accentuates the value of what is considered best instead of harming it, since it is not realistic to try to restrict alternatives to only the most expensive that exist. That's why people are still willing to pay fortunes for certain automobiles when cheaper alternatives are easy to get, and millions for artworks when innumerable alternatives exist at local art galleries and shopping centers.

Ok, now that I've said all that, check out this .ws that I found recently, but make sure you've got your speakers on first : WorldWideWeb.ws
