I got og.plus that expands to OpenGraphPlus.com.

At first I was stoked to have a two letter domain, but then I looked into it and learned these companies will get you hooked with a low initial price, then jack up the prices as the domain becomes established.

Quite the grift. My plan is to tread lightly on that domain and be ready to back away from it when the rent seekers move in.

You’d think there would be some sort of rules to the neutrality of these TLD administrators, but nope.

The second time around I wised up and go ogplus.net for an API domain instead of ogplus.media. I’ll take neutrality over vanity any day.
