I thought it would be cool to have my own TLD, but apparently it's all managed by the ICANN, so you can't just name your website with any TLD you want. There are different prices. But at least you can customize your second level domain. Why aren't TLDs like this?

Insanely, this is kind of how IP addresses are assigned using bgp.
