The new gTLD info of the day (Thursday)

New Domains .Cars, .Car, and .Auto Launching Specifically for the Auto Industry
Cars Registry, a joint venture between XYZ and Uniregistry, today announced the availability of three new domain extensions: .Cars, .Car, and .Auto. Between December 9th and January 12th, these domains will first be made available exclusively to trademark holders registered in the Trademark Clearinghouse. The new extensions provide the auto industry with a distinct marketing advantage over today's expensive or often over-long, and consequently harder to remember, .com URLs -- a critical challenge in an increasingly mobile era.

New gTLDs Gain Momentum
As hundreds of new domain extensions entered the market in 2014, one question was on everyone’s mind: how would they perform in search? After tracking and comparing search results for nearly a year and a half, a recent search engine marketing study found compelling evidence that new gTLDs are converting at a much higher rate than .COM.

.CLUB Hits Record Breaking $1,622,164.13

After I become a TMCH member, how and when can I register the .Cars, .Car, and .Auto domains that I want?
You can register your exact-match trademark domains starting on December 9, 2015 at any participating retailer. Domains are awarded on a first-come, first-served basis, so it is important to secure your marks early on in the Sunrise period. In order for your registration to be completed in Sunrise, the domain must match the SMD file you submit with your order.

The new gTLD info of the day (Wednesday)

Conference
Impact of the new gTLDs
The fifth Domain Forum will be organized on December 4th, 2015 in Sofia, Bulgaria. Instead of just presentations, the agenda is focused on interaction with the community, and will be composed of discussion panels involving local and international experts. This year Domain Forum will become a regional event with focus on the domain industry in the SEE region.
http://www.domainforum.global/agenda

Adjustment of new gTLD RPMs
The principal question raised by the Report was whether the review and possible adjustment of new gTLD RPMs and the review and potential reform of the UDRP should be combined or separated. On that key decision, our comment letter said that the RPMs should be addressed prior to the UDRP review for these reasons:

Ces catégories d’extensions Internet “qui cartonnent”
Les nouvelles extensions Internet suscitent souvent plus d’intérêt parce qu’elles choquent, parce qu’elles gênent, ou tout simplement parce qu’elles polluent l’univers des décideurs en charge de protéger leur marque. Pour certaines d’entre elles, nous n’en entendrons probablement jamais parler…et pourtant.

Quand le site de votre banque devient dangereux
Le phishing (ou hameçonnage en français) est une technique employée par les fraudeurs pour obtenir des informations personnelles à votre sujet. Au fil du temps, c’est quelque chose qui fait pratiquement partie de notre quotidien. On a finalement appris à vivre avec, en se méfiant de certains mails bizarres ou mal réalisés. Il faut dire que ces derniers mois, les fraudeurs ont fait des efforts. Nous recevons de plus en plus de messages écris dans un français correct, sans fautes et c’est justement ce qui peut tromper l’utilisateur. Plus difficile à reconnaître, ce sont les mails venant de marques qui inquiètent le plus. Si nous vous avions déjà parlé de la campagne de spams lancés et qui imitait le Trésor Public, en voici une qui concerne les banques et plus précisément BNP Paribas.http://www.logitheque.com/articles/alerte_au_phishing_quand_le_site_de_votre_banque_devient_dangereux_1076.htm

Le projet Yeti
Une Racine Alternative? (il semble que non)

La gestion de la racine du DNS est actuellement faite avec une extrême prudence, en raison du caractère très critique de cette ressource. Cela interdit, par exemple, des expérimentations, de peur qu'elles ne cassent ce service indispensable. Le DNS ayant en effet une structure arborescente, la résolution d'un nom de domaine en informations (comme par exemple l'adresse IP) passe forcément par la racine. Si celle-ci ne peut assurer son service, il n'y a plus de DNS, c'est-à-dire quasiment plus d'Internet. Cela justifie la politique « mains tremblantes » des opérateurs des serveurs racine : on ne touche à quelque chose qu'après mille précautions.
