IGF: The more things change, the more they stay the same by Jeanette Hofmann
Compared to other international and intergovernmental negotiations, which move at a snail’s pace, the Internet Governance Forum is still a highly dynamic process with a continuing openness towards change and experimentation. This year's most interesting area of experimentation concerns the outcomes of the Internet Governance Forum. The IGF is a space for policy dialogue; it is a non-binding process without any oversight functions. Even recommendations are permitted only in one specific area of "emerging issues". But after a year of less polarized discussions in the MAG, the original antagonism inherited from WSIS had a comeback at last week's meetings.

Paul Twomey Steps Down as ICANN CEO by Milton Mueller
Dr. Paul Twomey, the Australian who was ICANN's first Governmental Advisory Committee chair and later leveraged his governmental and private sector connections to become the Chief Executive Officer of ICANN, indicated that his term as CEO would not be renewed at the opening of the ICANN meeting in Mexico. Under Twomey's leadership ICANN weathered the World Summit on the Information Society and experienced a more than 10-fold increase in the size of its budget. He has been in that position so long that some view him as the personification of ICANN.

Deeply, Deeply Flawed Economic Report and Analysis of New gTLDs Posted by ICANN by George Kirikos
The reports and analysis by Dr. Dennis Carlton are deeply, deeply flawed. I will prepare a long rebuttal to it in the coming weeks, but wanted to go on the record early as to its weaknesses. The analysis appears to be based on a very limited review of the market for domain names, and utilizes little actual data. It fails to even consider how nuanced the market for domain names has become, and how registry operators can exploit those nuances, including tiered-pricing.

In Down Economy, Interest Grows in 'Internet Assets'
The dot-com meltdown of a decade ago led to many questions and court disputes about the valuation of and creditors' ability to take control of so-called "Internet assets" -- from domain names, Web sites and e-mail lists to intellectual property such as trademarks, patents, copyrights and other assets.

The 100 oldest registered dot com, org, net, edu domains
Ever wonder what the oldest registered .com domain is on the Internet? After all, they haven't always existed. In fact, it was just 24 years ago this month that the oldest domain was registered. It was www.symbolics.com, owned by the Symbolics, Inc. company who, back in the day, was a leading software development firm with software projects designed back in the 1980s which appear very much like modern software designs seen today. For example, they had developed a fully object-oriented operating system called Genera, which today still exists as Open Genera, for Alpha CPUs. Their domain was registered on March 15, 1985 -- when the Internet was brand new.

Jump Start: Domain Aftermarket Revs Up With a Trio of Six-Figure Sales Totaling More Than $700,000
The domain aftermarket seemed to be stuck in first gear for the first month and a half of the New Year, but a trio of solid six-figure sales gave the sales engine a jump start this past week. Three of the six biggest reported sales so far in 2009 were unveiled over the past seven days. Sedo.com led the high end onslaught by handling a $399,990 deal for Forums.com. Appropriately enough, the seller was DNForum.com owner Adam Dicker.

The Lowdown on Toys.com sale
A new BBC News story about the recent $5.1 million auction sale of Toys.com and the domain aftermarket in general, quotes Sedo business development manager Nora Nanayakkara as saying sales prices for .co.uk domains had been halved by the current economic downturn. However the article also quotes Nora as saying small to medium sized business end users are buying more domains than ever. "Sales have tripled as businesses see the value in having a presence online," she said, according to this report.

Al Gore promuove i domini .eco
Prepariamoci all'idea di poter scegliere tra .com, .it, .eu e, prossimamente, anche .eco. L'idea parte infatti con grandi forze alla base, con forti principi e con i capitali giusti. ICANN permettendo, dunque, l'ecologia è pronta ad entrare a far parte del mondo dei TLD.

Al Gore sostiene il nuovo dominio ‘.eco’
L’ex vicepresidente americano e premio Nobel per la pace Al Gore (nella foto) ha messo la propria notorietà al servizio di una campagna che punta alla creazione di un dominio ‘.eco’ su Internet, destinato a caratterizzare le organizzazioni e le realtà che si impegnano a favore dell’ ambiente e delle battaglie ecologiche.

Si accelera verso il dominio .eco
Cominciano a esserci nomi di rilievo dietro il movimento che vuole definire il nuovo nome di dominio (TLD) .eco per identificare i siti che trattano le tematiche ambientali, siano essi di singole persone, aziende od organizzazioni.

.loquequieras
Hasta ahora, los dominios de direcciones de internet se limitan a .com, .org, .net, .info y .edu, por lo que la Corporación para la Asignación de Nombres y Números de Internet (ICANN, por su acrónimo en inglés) trabaja en la creación de nuevos dominios genéricos, abriendo las posibilidades no sólo a terminaciones de tres letras, sino a cualquier palabra, por lo que breve podríamos ver direcciones que terminen con .noticias, .musica .amor y hasta .unamarcacomercial.

In Nederland zijn meer dan 3,2 miljoen domeinnamen geregistreerd, maar geen enkele organisatie controleert al deze websites op zaken als malware, gebruik van SSL-certificaten, opt-in / opt-out procedures of kinderporno.
