Logical Deduction on Why New TLDs Will Not Increase Costs for Trademark Holders by Bhavin Turakhia
Paul Stahura published a great report demonstrating that trademark holders have historically not been blocking their names across multiple Top-Level Domains (TLDs). I have always been a fan of number crunching -- "numbers never lie". Since Paul has already done a remarkable job of statistical analysis, I am going to wear my theorist hat and prove a reworded form of the Hypothesis using logical deduction and common sense.

ICANN Blows $4.6 Million In Stock Market by John Levine
If you visit the new dashboard on ICANN's web site, you see some nice bar charts, including one rather large negative number of $4,462,000. If you click the little arrow at the top of the Financial Performance chart, a footnote window pops open where the last sentence is: The large variance to budget is due to investment losses of $4.6 mil.

German Domain Names Are in .de-mand
Sales of pre-owned domain names ending in the German extension -- .de -- were up 43% in 2008, according to a study on the secondary domain market released Wednesday by Sedo, an online marketplace for domain names and Web sites.

FICORA granted 200,000th fi-domain name [news release]
The number of valid fi-domain names granted by FICORA exceeded 200,000. The authority granted the 200,000th domain name on 2 February 2009 to a Lappish company Tmi Maari that registered a domain name called maari.fi.

First gTLD Signed: Dot Gov by Jeremy Hitchcock
Today is a historic day as the first has been signed. Only a few other top level domains, all of which are ccTLDs, have been signed to date. This step is part of the first phase of adoption. Authoritative DNS servers need to sign and publish their zones. The second part is for the resolvers on the Internet to validate the keys. Both systems working together will provide security in the DNS.

Holland's innovative take on local presence
Country code TLDs often have some kind of local presence requirement. To be eligible for a .FR domain for example, you need an address in France. Local presence rules may be seen by some as an unnecessary hurdle but on the other hand, is it really that unreasonable to expect that a country's TLD be truly representative of that country?

New .tel domain aims to be 'phonebook for the net'
You might think that the last thing the internet needs is another top-level domain. Website owners can already choose between more than 200 possible endings for their internet addresses, ranging from the familiar .com to the exotic .xn-zckzah. But starting today, anyone in the world will be able to buy a domain ending in .tel - and the company selling them is convinced they will help to make the internet easier to navigate, not less.

The Lowdown on .tel
Don't look now but another new TLD land rush is underway. This one, kicked off this morning by the .tel registry, is unlikely to resonate with many domain investors though. You cannot build a website on a .tel domain, nor place ads on one to monetize it. Also, with land rush registration prices ranging from $295-$375 (depending on the registrar) per domain for the required minimum registration period of three years you would also be hard pressed to resell one for a profit.

GCN INTERVIEW: Vinton Cerf | Internet forecast calls for clouds
... GCN: What was your take on the vulnerabilities in the Domain Name System that surfaced last year, and what needs to be done going forward? Cerf: Yes, this was a fundamental design mistake in the DNS implementation, and it got widely publicized. I know we scrambled at Google to make corrections and changes to our software to make sure we weren’t vulnerable to that particular attack. There could be other problems like that arising.

CADNA's Policy Forum Discusses the $1.5 Billion Business “Tax” Brands Are Not Expecting [news release]
The Coalition Against Domain Name Abuse (CADNA) held a policy forum for government experts and brand owners yesterday, February 3, in Washington, D.C. The purpose of the forum was to explore the state of the Internet and discuss the shortcomings of existing Internet governance and policy development. Attendees shared their ideas about what actions brand owners and the US government can take to change the current course of the domain name space and prevent the Internet from becoming increasingly dangerous and unruly.

Sedo Growth Continues in Domain Market in 2008
Sedo, the leading online marketplace for buying and selling domain names, today announced the findings of its annual Secondary Domain Market Study, which revealed continued growth in demand for premium domains in 2008. Valuable online real estate yielded $77 million in revenue, and resulted in an overall eight percent sales increase over the 2007 total of $72 million.

Sedo has sold Dollars.com for EUR 302,500, which is about $388,000 USD at today’s exchange rates. An auction for the domain ended this morning, but the winning bidder is certified and is likely to complete the transaction. My understanding is the deal was put together by a Sedo broker.

Interview: Justin Hayward und die neuen .tel-Domains
Justin Hayward, Telnic Ltd.Domains sind schon eine feine Sache. Haben früher nur wenige Leute eine eigene Internetadresse besessen, gehört das virtuelle Zuhause in Form einer Homepage oder eines Blogs heutzutage praktisch schon zur Grundausstattung in einem Web 2.0-Haushalt. Die neue Top Level Domain .tel geht sogar noch einen Schritt weiter und mutiert für den Besitzer zum globalem Kontaktverzeichnis.

Verkauf von Internet-Domains 2008 stark gestiegen [APA]
Im abgelaufenen Jahr hat der Handel mit Internetadressen floriert, geht aus einer Erhebung der Domainhandelsbörse Sedo hervor. Die Anzahl der Adress-Verkäufe über die Plattform ist 2008 um 35 Prozent auf 36.884 gestiegen, der Durchschnittspreis aber um gut ein Fünftel gesunken. Im vierten Quartal hat sich dann die aufziehende Wirtschaftskrise bemerkbar gemacht. In diesem Zeitraum wurden am wenigsten Adressen verkauft. Österreichische Domains sind durchschnittlich um rund 39 Prozent teurer geworden, obwohl weniger gehandelt wurden.

answers.travel – ernste Zweifel an Rekorderlös
Vor kurzem überraschte die Endung .travel mit dem Verkauf von answers.travel für kolportierte US$ 3,3 Mio. Nun kursiert eine Presseinformation über eine Untersuchung der Hudson Crossing Advisory. Deren Untersuchung über den so genannten zweiten Domain-Markt bringt es auf den Punkt: Domain-Endungen, die vollständige Begriffe darstellen - wie .travel - sind hochwertiger als irgendwelche Kürzel wie .pro. Und die Seiten von Hudson Crossing liefern den Hintergrund für diese Erkenntnis.
