.TEL Domain Authority announced crossing the symbolic number of 100,000 .tel domain registered.
Several social and professional networks such as MySpace, VoIP companies like voipGATE, ISPs, and Telcos are joining the .tel already well extended network.
- .tel domain is completely under the control of its owner and can be used in whatever way he wishes to display and store his contact information. This information can also be encrypted and only accessible by the user. Another important point is that there are no technical skills required to build a .tel. The site can be branded and personalized but doesn’t need any technical maintenance.
- .tel enables a large number of keywords that enhance search engine optimization and render a tel domain instantly more discoverable and reachable, online or otherwise.
In response to the interest of users to register domains directly under .mx, the authority has announced the release of its registration.
Registration directly under .mx offers important benefits for Internet users related to Mexico, such as registration of shorter names, the possibility of not restricting names to only one kind of organization, and the direct identification with Mexico in Internet, among others, this way allowing users to register domains like www.mycompany.mx.
The re launch of .mx is planned in different stages. During the first stage, from May 1 to July 31, 2009, only holders of .com.mx, .net.mx, .org.mx, .edu.mx and .gob.mx domains may apply for the corresponding .mx domain name; for example, if you had registered store.com.mx you will be able to register store.mx. To be eligible, all registrants needed to have held a domain name under of the above sub domains before March 1, 2009.
Registration is planned to be open to everyone on September 1, 2009.
As from today, March 24, you may register a .tel at a lower price than in previous stages.
.tel provides with a unique way of sharing all types of contact information with any device connected to the internet. Businesses and individuals are now logging into their own .tel domains, enabling them to store, publish and update contact information (telephone, website, email, skype, etc.) in real time, all in one place and without need of a website.
Below you will find an example of how a .tel would look like:

The .FI Domain Registry issued in February a record number of 4,130 new .fi domain names. The number is 11% more than in February 2008 and over 30% more than in February 2007.
Reason for the strong demand for .fi domain names, according to the Registry, is the general growth in the sector and, especially, the one year period of validity which was introduced at the beginning of the year. In February, 38% of the new .fi domain names were registered for one year.
.TEL Domain Authority announced the .tel TLD has gone live with thousands of domain names registered in the sunrise period becoming active for the first time, thus creating the world’s first global directory.
The registry operator for the new .tel domains, which provide individuals and businesses with a unique way of sharing all types of contact information with any device connected to the internet, successfully launched its new service.
This is a momentous day for the company as eight years of development has come to fruition, said Henri Asseily, CTO and Chief Strategist. We are delighted to be delivering something that will push the boundaries of communications and the internet to the next level, putting the power back into the hands of the individual when it comes to using and sharing contact information.
Businesses and individuals are now logging into their own .tel domains, enabling them to store contact information, keywords and location information, which is then published to the internet quickly and securely without needing to build a website.
This fundamental change in the use of the internet will break open the ability for anyone to now own a domain and be found from any device, added Asseily. This is the biggest innovation to hit the internet and communications and it seems fitting that we have achieved this on the 133rd anniversary of the first use of the telephone. From today, people will be able to dial a .tel name to connect with people. The future of communications is now wide open to innovation.
