Y Yahoo Can’t Be Y.com
This is an interesting development for IDNers as many of us have single character domains. If Yahoo is Trademarking domains it can't and may never own then it shows that the potential interest in single character IDN is huge.

Does anyone know what the Hirigana equivalent of Y would be?

Best Regards

Re: Y Yahoo Can’t Be Y.com
ヤ.com YA.com katakana <- good for foreign words
や.com YA.com hiragana

Who said phishing is only Cyrillic and Greek?

丫.com

[EN] slave girl
[ZH] 丫 [ya1]

And Yandex missed the boat. They can no longer register their lame mixed-script logo. Will they try to buy Я.com?

Яndex.com is blocked.

ToysЯUs.com missed it as well.

It is interesting to go back and revive old threads. I was thinking of single character domains today.
