It kind'a IS "Neutral" - the .nu domain is popular in Sweden

Because the word "nu" means "now" in Swedish; it's as if there were a ".now" top-level domain for English-speakers.

Makes for "cute" domain names, of the type "gotomysite.now", etc (or "comefuckme.now", etc -- Swedes have no lack of seedy sites any more than Anglophones do).

Like .to for Anglophones.

Is it enough to love
Is it enough to breathe
Somebody rip my heart out
And leave me here to bleed

Is it enough to die
Somebody save my life
I'd rather be Anything but Ordinary
Please
