.cc top level domain

I am amazed by the clever use of the top level domain .cc. Originally, it is a country code domain for Cocos Island. However, people think that .cc can be used to describe commercial company, chinese community, country club or computer community. Here, we have Oriental Daily News already changed the web site name from http://orinetaldaily.com.hk to http://orientaldaily.on.cc. Another example is www.hinet.cc and we see big network operators such as Hinet also treasure the .cc domain.
