http://www.dot.tk doesn't exactly appear to be a solution for "totally free domains." I remember checking this out before, and on their website it clearly says:

In order to use your FREEDOMAIN.TK you need to have an existing web page, website or homepage somewhere on the Internet. ... Every Internet user who surfs to your Dot TK address will automatically be directed to the website address you have registered. You can change your website address any time to redirect your users to a different website or web page. [emphasis mine]

It does give you a domain NAME; but this only redirects the user to the page you already have, it appears. And when I tried to register a domain to see what would happen, I just got 'The page cannot be displayed' errors (using IE)/connection closed by remote server (using Opera).
On their site it says it is a solution for people that don't want to enter the long URLs that sites like geocities have ... but it still doesn't get around the fact that geocities is hosting the space. Also, this message seems somewhat bad in the case that it is just for a small, occasionally visited site:
Quote:
Domain names that are not used in a 90-day period by at least 25 homepage visitors will be cancelled and made available to other registrants
[emphasis again mine]
