In the $1 billion market for Web addresses, country-specific domain names are the latest sector to heat up.

SAN FRANCISCO (Business 2.0) -- Real estate prices might be falling in some areas - but that's for physical real estate. Virtual real estate, in the form of Internet domain names - the part after the "www" in a website's address - is on a tear and showing no signs of slowing down.

By some estimates, the market for registering and trading domain names could reach $2.5 billion this year.

And in the latest twist, domain investors have been bidding up prices of domain names around the world. The dot-com ending - ".com" - is still the Rodeo Drive of the Web, but as Internet usage spreads around the globe, the demand for suffixes like .eu (European Union), .es (Spain), .cn (China) and .br (Brazil) is heating up, too.
