Useless TLD.
Normally when you apply for a .jobs it's supposed to match your company name. In other words you can't reg anything. And you won't sell any.
It's definitely not a TLD for investment/speculation purposes.

It is indeed a pointless TLD, no thought went into this TLD whatsoever. If your looking for a job at Microsoft, why would you not go to Microsoft.com/careers instead of Microsoft.jobs. Now you have to maintain two websites for what purpose? It's foolish and redundant. It confuses both the customer and the webmaster.

Here's the problem; you cannot register a very good .jobs term because it has to be the name of your company ONLY. So, if your company sells boxes and the name is "boxes are great" you cannot register the terms boxes.jobs, YOU HAVE NO CHOICE but to register boxesaregreat.jobs. Silly in many ways because in some cases the name might not fit the descriptions of the company and or it's activities. .Jobs only allows you to register your company name. So, again the point of a good term is moot, you can't use it. Cheers!

ooh, thanks for informations .. then i must have the company name (EDEN) to be able to register (EDEN.jobs).
In this case, its very very useless to just think its useful to invest with, thanks a lot :)
