Note that the new top-level domain (TLD) .info is likely to
come on line soon, perhaps in the next few months. It will
look odd at first, but the crowding of the .com TLD means
that the new TLDs are likely to get populated rather
quickly. Since seven TLDs are coming at once, the concept
of new TLDs will spread rapidly. (The other new TLDs are
.firm, .shop, .rec, .web, .nom, and .arts.)

.info is the obvious TLD for an FAQ collection once the new
TLDs are in place.
