Road Trip Nelson -> Glaciers -> Queenstown -> Dunedin

We started in Nelson with sunny weather, made our way down to the Glaciers during heavy rainfalls and continued to Queenstown where the mountains were covered with fresh snow. The highlight at our final destination Dunedin was a huge New Zealand Sea Lion sleeping on the beach.

New Zealand is a real beauty, isn't it?

Domain Name Industry 2009 Review

10 – Toys.com is sold for a staggering $5.1 million dollars.

9 – With 115 million current gTLDs, registration growth slows from 11% in 2008 down to 6% in 2009.

8 – Oversee.net and SnapNames.com admit that a company executive acted as a shill bidder in the auctions of thousands of domains over a four-year period.

7 – UDRP marks its 10-year anniversary with more than 16,000 disputes and more than 10,000 domain name transfers.

6 – Germany (.DE) and .BIZ announce the release of one- and two-character domain name registrations.

5 – Mexico (.MX), Tunisia (.TN) and Cameroon (.CM) announce the release of second-level domain registrations and the European Union (.EU), Bulgaria (.BG) Singapore (.SG) and .NAME announce the release of Internationalized Domain Names (IDNs).

4 – Corporate registration trends move away from the practice of registering large numbers of defensive domains as more companies adopt aggressive monitoring and policing policies.

3 – Both registries and registrars are exploited by hackers as SQL vulnerabilities are uncovered.

2 – ICANN's IDN Fast Track process is approved and applications for Top-Level Internationalized Country Codes are accepted.

1 – The launch of ICANN's new gTLD program is delayed as commitments to addressing and resolving overarching issues related to trademark protection, stability and security, malicious conduct and economic demand are made.
