Survey of 2-character domain names

[flux]

I recently did a scan of all 1,296 2-character .org domains. As you probably know, these are now reserved by the registry, and I was curious how many were active and how many reserved. The results of the scan are up here:


There were some interesting results. These are the 48 domains that are 'reserved':

ac.org    ar.org    bp.org    bs.org    b3.org    c2.org
do.org    d3.org    e3.org    fs.org    hb.org    h9.org
i6.org    j0.org    k4.org    mw.org    nh.org    nq.org
o7.org    pj.org    pt.org    qd.org    r4.org    sk.org
ts.org    ur.org    vc.org    yo.org    zg.org    zi.org
zl.org    zp.org    z8.org    z9.org    0d.org    0n.org
0p.org    0t.org    1w.org    2c.org    2w.org    3p.org
31.org    5c.org    6g.org    7d.org    7e.org    75.org

It also has a breakdown of the registrars, and all names sorted by registration date. Anybody know what's up with e8.org?

I'm thinking about doing the same thing for .com/.net, would anybody be interested in seeing it?

very good site, bogosort.com/sds/

I used to buy these, when very few would even consider them

Some of them are reserved names now only because they dropped in the past and not available again per the registry rules of not being able to reg them, such as AC.org. I remember when the old owner made the big mistake of letting it expire. Of course, 2 letter names like AC are much more valuable than 2 character.

very much interested in the other extensions...

Thanks for the interest, running scans on .com and .net right now. I'll post when the results are in.

When Bonkers 2 showed up at another forum the mods knew it was probably really him because he used a two letter domain for an email address. At least in the domain industry LL's are a sign of clout.
