.fm is the
island nation located in the Pacific Ocean
.
Except for reserved names like .com.fm, .net.fm, .org.fm and others, any person in the world can register a .fm domain for a fee, much of the income from which goes to the government and people of the islands. The domain name is popular (and thus economically valuable) for
streaming audio websites (other similar ccTLDs are .am, .tv, .cd, .dj and .mu); a notable example is Last.fm
, a social music website.
On March 29, 2018, .fm began allowing registration of emoji domains.[1]

- Ask.fm, website through which people ask and answer questions
