ICANN Proposes Sweeping Changes to TLDs

The Wall Street Journal reports that the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN) is considering sweeping changes to the way top-level domains (TLDs) are assigned. Under this newly proposed plan, any organization could apply for any top-level domain (ICANN calls these new domain names generic TLDs). Google, for example, could get a .google domain, or Coke products might be found under .coke. If accepted, this would be the most significant modification of the TLD naming system yet.

Update: ICANN just approved these changes.

Brand Squatting: What To Do About It?

By Richard MacManus / January 14, 2008 2:58 PM

A couple of days ago I received the following email, from a Mr Vladislav Sobolev, who I'd never heard of before:

"Hi,

I am going to launch ReadWriteWeb.mobi, the mobile version of ReadWriteWeb
optimized for viewing on a mobile phone. I am also launching a number of other
mobile sites including buzzmachine, craphound, crunchboard, deadspin,
micropersuasion, scobleizer, sethgodin, and a couple dozen other projects.
Thought you might be interested.

I'm also launching MacManus.mobi btw.

Cheers,
V.S ."
