Article: Internet agency considers '.tel' domain name

  • Article

https://edition.cnn.com/2006/TECH/internet/04/14/contact.domain.name.ap/

 

“To help people manage all their contact information online, the Internet's key oversight agency is considering a ".tel" domain name. If approved, the domain could be available this year.

As proposed, individuals could use a ".tel" Web site to provide the latest contact information and perhaps even let friends initiate a call or send a text message directly from the site. Businesses could use a ".tel" site to determine customers' locations and route them automatically to the correct call center.”

 

While hoping to create a one-stop location for users to manage all of their contact information (ala Plaxo), it is simply a TLD (top-level domain) and has no inherent ‘smarts’ to it – those would have to be created by content publishers and the resultant end-user applications that are developed. Still, considering all of the investments in hosted-PIM data being made all over the technology space, something to consolidate its locations could prove a worthwhile starting point for location-agnostic sharing of your information.

    Not much on my mind lately. My life's been completely boring these days. I've just been hanging out not getting anything done. So it goes.

    My life's been basically bland today. More or less nothing seems worth thinking about. My mind is like an empty room. I've more or less been doing nothing to speak of. Not much on my mind recently.

    My life's been pretty dull recently. Shrug. My mind is like a void. I haven't gotten anything done lately. I can't be bothered with anything recently.

    Not much on my mind right now, but it's not important. I've just been letting everything happen without me. I just don't have anything to say right now.
