DOMAIN EXTENSION GUIDE
.share Domain Names
Contended application stage.share is a proposed ASCII top-level domain centred on the idea of sharing. Publicly announced information identifies more than one organisation as associated with the string, so it should be treated as a contended proposed extension rather than a live public namespace. Any eventual use would depend on the outcome of the application process and registry delegation.
