The nation's capital has joined ".com," ".gov" and a few other select naming categories on the Internet's list of top-level domains.
This means website addresses ending in ".tokyo" are now possible, domain manager GMO Registry Inc. said at a press conference April 7.

GMO Registry has started accepting applications for new addresses, with the first to debut in mid-June. (The Japan Times)
