Could this be the start of a new trend? From a recruiting perspective, I hope so. it certainly would make it easier to find people based on a job title. Well, for free anyways. When I performed a site search on the dotCEO domain, not much was there. However, I suspect that will change in the near future.

Click here to see the latest search results. Imagine now if there were dotVP domains or dotAdmins or dotAccountant domains? Just a thought…

So, what do you think of this? Is it cool? Or, is it meh? Your thoughts?
