Can you imagine you are asked by a journalist to give an example of a new gTLD? I could have spoken about any French new gTLD and I chose the .PLOMBIER! (plumbery in English).

New gTLDs on French TV with Jean Guillon ;-)
Can you imagine you are asked by a journalist to give an example of a new gTLD? I could have spoken about any French new gTLD and I chose the .PLOMBIER! (plumbery in English).
I am a new gTLD Consultant based in Paris. "New gTLD" stands for "new generic Top-Level Domains" from the ICANN new gTLD program. They are new domain name extensions such as ".consulting" (instead of ".com").
Digital Archery: increase chances to be in batch 1
I watched and listened to Rob Beckstrom today on the "Reveal Day" event. He was asked by a journalist about Digital Archery and did not seem to see a problem with the external service providers offering a solution to increase chances to be in batch one.
Key-Systems offers a solution and charges only for first batch hits. If it increases chances to be in batch one and gives the TLD a realistic chance to start registrations in 2013, it can be an opportunity to start selling domain names earlier.

There are 230 domain names for which at least two applications were submitted, involving a total of 751 applications.

Registries.tel will close today
The list of new gTLD applicants will be published today by ICANN in London.
This list, expected for years by the entire new gTLD industry, will be the "official" and only one, therefore I will stop maintaining Registries.tel and redirect this "directory"to the list published by ICANN.
Since 2009, it has been a "hunting game" to list information on this web site and I can tell I often received a daily email from Google Analytics which informed me there had been more than 200 page views. Not a lot...but as you can see on the curve above, I sometimes went above 1200 visits a day.
Any original idea of what I could do with this domain name now is welcome (this also applies for rrdrp.com and pddrp.com).
Time to turn a page ;-)
