Am I the only one who got really excited upon seeing the domain was octobot.taco.cat, and then very confused when going to www.taco.cat? It seems to be an art gallery in Spanish or something...
I realize this is not germane to the topic, but .cat!? What other really interesting tld's exist that I have never heard about?
It really surprised me that they assigned three-letter TLD for Catalan, whereas all other countries have two-letter TLD's.
It happens to be not a country code (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Internet_top-level_doma...), but the generic TLD, alongside the likes of .com and .org, "for Web sites in the Catalan language or related to Catalan culture", the only one of this kind in this category. Go figure.

It's for the Catalan language:

I think I need to take a look at the TLDs available, lately, because I know a lot have slipped under my radar.
