nbc had to go to wipo to get a number of their “city” names when they decided to go local.

however, i believe the list of espncitydotcom’s is far larger than the one you published although i can’t give you an example off the top of my head. let’s just say that espn knew what they were doing.

it does make the whole thing rather intuitive, doesn’t it? it takes search basically out of the formula which ought to scare the goog out of google.

the reason i’m writing is i was totally unaware that cbssports has begun their journey local too. i wanted to thank you for that info.

it never ceases to amaze me how the web works– moments ago i was reading mike malone’s brand new say on the espn matter @ broadcastingcable and was curious if espn had done anything yet with espndetroit (like even a mere landing screen). since my browser defaults to google when no property is found, a link to your blog appeared that looked only days old.

again, thanks for the cbssports info.
