Developed on behalf of Telnic Limited (http://telnic.tel) - which created the award-winning communications-focused .tel names - Symsource’s My.tel for Android management app allows users to manage their .tel contact information in real time. The application developed by Symsource supports Android OS 1.5 and is oriented to popular devices from HTC and other providers.

This will keep the minds of .Tel users occupied and distracted, rather than that they will be able to be worried about the real worries and problems about .Tel.

What happens if the registry can't fullfill the promised time stipulated for releasing the template selection: Don't worrie, be happy and play the ".tel treasure hunt". That's what you usually do with small children, to let them forget about the existing problems and worries, and let them be in a "other world" of play and fantasy.

Mactel,

Thank you for your comment. Please remember that this is a brand awareness and educational campaign for .tel domains and TelPages targeted at internet users in general, not exclusively at .tel owners. This is why we've shared banners and PR so that active .tel owners can help spread the word and increase the value and popularity of .tel domains.
If the competition doesn't sound appealing to you, you can continue focusing on securing your portfolio, developing your domains and sales efforts.

Yes, but:
"help spread the word and increase the value and popularity of .tel domains" will make more sense, if there is a decent telproxy to show ("off" with).

At this stage, and mainly because telproxy is not very appealing to look at, many potential companies are not very interested, or not (yet) interested in .Tel.

So, this promo effort, comes too early, wheras the efforts to make .Tel look nicer, are very late.

It is not so smart to try to promote a ugly duckling, when it would be easyer to promote a white swan.

Put your efforts and energy into bringing out the .Tel template selection. "Treasure hunt" is another thing, done at the wrong time. Same as the new telproxy came out too late, just before renewal time, putting loads of people off, if only left "gray in gray", and not used to add a nice logo, and a tasteful colour scheme. The new .Tel look was quasi a anti-promotion, as the look needs a lot more refinement options.

Why .tel?



Domainvestors.tv - Why .tel? from Domainvestor on Vimeo.


In this video I discuss the reasons why I think .tel domains could be a good investment. While .tel may never be successful in the Domaining world, I have reason to believe this will be a success in the business world.

.tel is the first time I have seen Domainers close their mind to a new idea so quickly. I think the reason for this is simple – .tel is not a TLD for Domainers. We are oftentimes afraid of what we do not know, or what we do not understand. Look at Alexander Graham Bell – when he first invented the telephone many people were terrified of the new device. It is easy to be afraid of what we do not understand, but closing your mind might only cause you miss-out on an incredible opportunity.

I share some great quotes from a recent post by Kevin Jackson of ebusinessdomains.com.

Along with my own thoughts on .tel I have included an on-screen demo of how to configure your .tel domain as well as an example of a strong application for .tel – cancel.tel.
