Now, according to  http://www.iana.org/, the extensions are devided in 2 big categories:
- generic top-level domains : .com , .net , .org , .biz, .info, .name , .pro , etc
- country code, ccTLD domains: domains for every country.
Because of the large number of domains registered  some countries took advantage of the extensions of their contry and exployed  it internationaly by gaveing it diferent conotations. For example :
.tv extension of Tuvalu, but used for televisons all around the world.
.fm extension of Fereration of state Micronesia and used by radios.
.ws extension for Samoa and used as conotation for WebSite.
As you see  .im extension can receive diferent conotations. The virtual market  becomes larger, so in close future the extensions won't be so important anymore as the name of  the domain itself, so that anyone can choose.
