Google does too: https://domains.google (registrar), https://dns.google (public-dns, supports DoH and DoT), and https://ai.google.

I wish there was something up at https://google.google or https://apple.apple



Besides .google there's also .goog though.

Google also own .new which seems like the sort of ridiculously expensive experiment only one of the big startups with cash to burn would do. It allows you to type docs.new or sheets.new (etc) into your address bar and instantly get an empty document.

Sadly it always defaults to the first logged in user, which makes it almost entirely useless to me.


You can also type design.new to get a Canva design.
