Interesting. Lots of new material on the telnic.org website too.

Wow, look at all the new updates at their Telnic website ... including; :gl:
"Simple, fast and accessible from any device, .tel provides a new internet standard to take full control over how and where people reach you."
"We've been working hard over the past years to make sure that everything we're delivering to the industry will enable it to take advantage of this new ecosystem." :talk:

I, and many others here, predicted some time ago ...

... it'll take a heck of a lot LESS advertising (branding) for the natural and highly brandable .TEL extension than some of the other newer, and longer, and more clumsy (two syllables, and thus more difficult to brand effectively) extensions! :snaphappy:

Jeff said:
I also believe that a LOT of the :$: money not going to the '08 / '09 renewals of the "dot Mobey" ... will be redirected instead to the highly brandable .TEL namespace, as well! :imho:

Jeff said:
If nothing else, (by the end of) 2008 will be the year of the faded "dot Mobey" vs. the highly brandable .TEL discussion / debate! :talk:

Just my two sense.

yes, without getting into a controversy, "dot Mobey" will meet the fate of "Mobey Dick" ;)

Righto, and it's definitely a good discussion to have (if those few remaining that are closest with the "dot Mobey" can keep things civil and professional in this context), IMHO ... as there will be a significant shift of REAL :$: DOLLARS / ASSETS away from other, longer extensions (that simply failed to enforce and moderate substantial, including corporate, developments or foster critical awareness!) to that of the new and very highly brandable .TEL extension! :yell: :talk:
IMHO.

^ Unnecessary remark, IMHO. :|

Please search highly brandable ".TEL" in the top right Namepros Quick Search™ ... for other members' humble and informative thoughts, opinions, and predictions. :music: :imho:

Thanks and enjoy your Sunday!

It appears that .tel will not host normal webpages -- rather just various contact information. As such, no standard webpages/webhosting will be possible. Though that seems fairly lame, it has a pretty big appeal to the non-developer domainer that simply wants to direct traffic. Plus, a .tel owned by a large company will look very similar to one that is owned by some random person -- so there will not be much of a page appearance credibility gap. Though .tel is quite brandable, I see it more as metadata as anything else. Will be interesting to see how things go.
