Twitter.me domain squatter will get piece of that $15 million funding round

[anatoly]

If the guy who bought Twitter.me doesn't get some cash from the deal, Twitter's lawyers will, as they pursue a costly, bureaucratic trademark complaint. Either way, looks like some of that $15 million round of venture capital just disappeared from the stash. Which serves as a friendly reminder to wantrepreneurs: Chase the squatters away from your brand, lest they take up residence and demand walking-away money.

Dot ME nic is not exactly the United Nations.

Don't imagine for a moment that you have the full protection of the US constitution behind you if you register this extension.

Most large companies will not even be mildly interested in dot ME, and will switch off entirely the moment Montenegro is mentioned. They are certainly not going to shell out a King's ransom for it.
