PHILADELPHIA, PA, October 29 /PRNewswire/ -- Telnic Limited
(http://telnic.tel), the Registry Operator for the new communications-focused
.tel top level domain (TLD), today accepted a Models of Excellence award at
Data Content '09. The InfoCommerce Group Models of Excellence highlight and
profile industry exemplars to show how real revenue is generated by selling
or distributing information online.
"The concept behind the .tel domain is both audacious and sublime," said
Russell Perkins, Founder of InfoCommerce Group, ".tel has the potential to
revolutionize online contact directories by providing simple, fast,
streamlined contact information for everyone. .tel is particularly important
in the context of mobile devices not only because of its fast response time,
but because the .tel dynamic information page is compact, uncluttered, and
enables easy one-click emails and phone calls even with limited screen real
estate. This is an incredibly innovative and powerful idea with huge
potential."
Henri Asseily, Chief Technology Officer and Chief Strategist at Telnic
added: "As people begin to realize that the similarities with all other
domain names begin and end with the dot in .tel, they are opening their minds
to the possibility of securely sharing all kinds of data over the internet in
a standardized, efficient and actionable way. We're pleased that
organizations such as InfoCommerce Group has seen the potential of .tel and
are delighted to accept this award in the first year that .tel names became
available to all."
