If the restrictions for .Tel Domains would be removed, then they would be the "better Dot Com's" for mobile telephone Internet usage.
Furthermore, if Dot Tel domains can offer something, that Dot Com domains can't offer on a mobile phone, than Dot Tel domains would be in more favorable position.
Extensions can`t change, but restrictions can be removed, anytime.
Hardly anybody would mind to pay the hosting for a Dot Tel domain, if they had the same freedom as with a Dot Com domain. At the end, they would have the better domain extension for mobile Internet on smart phones. As people would know, that a Dot Tel domain, is like any other domain, and that it offers the same navigation possibilities.
Users used to register a Dot Mobi, only because of its extension: Because they intended to use the domain for smart phones with Internet.
The .Tel registry is doing the same thing: Offering a domain for smart phones with Internet, but with restrictions.
However, the .Tel registry is providing a control panel, for populating the domain.
It was supposed to be a no-brainer, but the friending feature was too complecated, as well as few other things.
Why not deliver a mobile friendly template, without any restrictions? And leave the hosting to the registrars?
As soon as the only difference between domains, is the extension, Dot Tel will win over the other domain extensions, for smart phone usage.
The existing dot tel concept seems to be somewhat outdated. It might of worked well, eight or ten years ago, when it was created.
Dot Tel domains are lacking exitement. And users are used to Dot Com websites.
It is difficult to sell something that is less attractive.
The biggest advantage of the Dot Tel domain, is that it is "low cost" for the domain holder / owner. And users don't know, that using it, would be also "low cost" for them. And so, users other from the .Tel owners, don't care about the costs for Dot Tel domains. They just see a weird and boring page, with some contact information on it, and a penedrant and annoying Dot Tel logo. And say, that the design looks more like a domain parking page.
The easiest and more successful thing would be, to lift all restrictions, and tel(l) the world, that Dot Tel domains are for smart phone usage. Full stop.
And everyone would "get" that, and people would start registering .Tel's, and populating them by a webdesigner, or by themselfs.
Who would care, to have to pay hosting and a webdesigner, if they get a powerfull and efficient mobile website at the end, having a fantastic domain extension (.tel)?
The ten year old Dot Tel concept needs some rethinking and remodeling. Time for change. You can't expect a ten year old concept to be successful, ten years later.
If a Internet domain does not offer more than a landing page and a folder tree, and contact information, than it should be much less expensive... Somewhere around $03,00 (tree Dollars).
Provide a person with a Dot Com address, and he knows, what to do with it.
Provide a person with a Dot Tel address, and he does not know what to do with it.
If every new smart phone had a Dot Tel search engine as default, then everybody would know, what to do with Dot Tel domains.
If Dot Tel domains would be easyer to mobilize, and offer as much freedom as Dot Com domains, then that would be clearly an advantage for the Dot Tel domains.
Ok, I think I said enough, and now it is up to you, to "thinktank" and brainstorm.
The really biggest advantage of .Tel domains, is the fact, that one can set up a mobile friendly Internet domain within a few hours (ok, you say, within a few minutes..), and which is ideal for QR-Code usage (Quick Response Code usage). Because, if you want to sell something spontaniously, and fast, you can set up a mobile friendly .Tel domain, and encode it as a QR-Code (you generate a code from a website URL, for example), and print the code and display it, where smart phone owners can scann it (and click to decode it), and then interact with you and your offer.
Speed, is what matters, and you can act fast, with a .Tel domain, a QR-Code generator, and a QR-Code reader. This sort of interaction, one can only achieve with mobile websites. And Dot Tel is already "out of the box" mobile. No need for a webmaster and a webdesigner, there. And the "no need", would be a time saver and advantage, in connection with QR-Code usage. Again: Time saving matters.
Cheers.

Dot Tel domains: Review.
First of all, I heartily thank Bill, for his fantastic blog „DOT TEL DOMAINS BLOG“, at http://dottel.blogspot.com/.
I agree with many of his statements, especially, about the .tel domain registry Telnic. And I can hear a lot of disappointment within his comments.
How good is the communication between Telnic and the holders of .tel domains?: The call for a professional webdesigner for the Dot Tel interface and look, had never been realized.
Bill put the question, once again, if one should renew or drop the .tel domains, and he tends to not renew most of them, due to his „uncertain future for .tel“ vision. Bills comments are easy to follow and understand, according to common sense. However, investors should aim a long term strategy of about five years, and then make a decision to drop the .tel domains, or not. If you don't think in long terms, you are not investing. Neither are you investing, if you are not taking financial risks.
Besides all the improvements for the look and the promotion of .Tel that could have been done, but haven't been done, and after ca. two years, since online, .Tel is clearly underestimated, undervalued, and hardly, or not understood. The Dot Tel domain is a Internet landing page for contact and business information, and a lot more. The domain works partly „out of the box“, and can be, on the other part, configured, with a bit of nitty gritty work, to a efficient SEO booster, and a domain that gets found in Internet.
I doubt that any .tel domain with an good name is a waste of money, if used and kept up to date.
Dot Tel domains are here to stay. The key is public education, but which hasn't taken place on a grand scale.
The monitary system is not favorable for long term investments: It depends strongly on short term profits. Every one thinking, they could make short term profits with .tel domains, must give up those expectations. The value of a domain, is not the value in form of money, that you can cash in, at a given time. With time, certain domains get sought after, by a few people, who know what they could do with them. Offer them, where there is competition from other bidders: At an live auction.
If we drop a .tel domain, or sell it under value, we lose in the long term, but save expenses in the short term: So what do you prefer, and what can you afford?
Even Dot Biz and Dot Mobi will become established and accepted by a wider audience. The are late comers, same as Dot Tel.
Now, imagine, you could just buy a domain, without having to renenew it every year...: No droped domains, would be the result.
Now imagine, Dot Tel's would cost only $5 instead of $10 (http://www.name.com/ price): The result would be....: Less droped domains. Both szenarios sound like fair deals.
For a reseller, or for a domainer with a large portfolio, the domain prices are probably too high, for uncertain long term investments: Why don't the domain registries take such a fact into account, with non-established domain creations?
The decisions are always based on financial thoughts and related to current market prices.
Basically, a good domain name and ranking, has nothing to do with money. And money shouldn't spoil the success, potential and fun.
As I once pointet out: The domain extension ".tel", is probably the best of all existing domain extension, by just looking at the extension itself. And no other existing domain name extension suits better for mobile phone computing.
People have never asked, what sense the domain name extension ".com" makes: But ".com" just got accepted and established with time, by the masses. ".com" could either mean "communication", "commerce", "company", "computing", whatever.
With ".tel", I think, people can't easily make the bridge from Internet domain to telephone, respectively, why should a website URL have a extension, that reminds you of "tel-ephone"?
As soon as Internet and the smart phone become a natural related thing, there might be a run after anything, that eases mobile communication. Inclusive "Dot Tel" domains.
If the couple "Internet" and "smart phone" is no no-brainer yet to mainstream, why should the Dot Tel registry Telnic make much effort to educate mainstream about Dot Tel?
Looking at it that way, and in that aspect, you couldn't blame Telnic, for beeing as passive, as it has been, up and till now. Telnic is not bigh enough, to take such a finacial risk, as such promotion would not just cost one million Dollars, but at least five or ten million Dollars.
By just having a lot of "drops" (droped .tel domains), the financial losses, are still kept at the smallest possible. And financial recovery is possible, anytime, within reasonable time.
Therefore, Telnic is far, from "missing the boat". And all chances are fully intact.
Dot Tel, will pick up, with time. And it will be the overall development in the world of mobile communication, that will decide about the success of the Dot Tel domain.
Of course, and nevertheless, Telnic should change a few things now, at present, and not postpone those. You might be able to say, what that should be. But I am not quite sure.
I think the registry, as well as the domain holders, are a bit overextended. And decisions and actions taken, on both sides, are either taken too carefully, or too hastily, but neither appropriate.
So, who is to blame?: I think, the basic problem are high costs for calling and surfing on a smart mobile phone, which hinders mainstream owners of mobile phones, to access the Internet from their mobile phones, or access Internet, more often. Roaming costs, or still far too expensive.
And people don't know, that .Tel pages the sites that can be viewed at the lowest cost.
When mobile Internet gets generally more mainstream, then that is when Telnic should start making some serious efforts with promoting .Tel, and spending some important amount of money for promotion. I assume, that Telnic does have a successful strategy, even if it doesn't really look that way.
All in all, domaining with heavyweight in the mobile telecommunicaion field, and expecting to make some tidy earnings, and some serious money, is nothing more than a poker game.
Dot Tel domains, are usefull, now, but for for getting tidy earnings through advertising or selling, it is far too early. But you should nevertheless learn all about .Tel, and how to improve and populate a .Tel domain. Because when things take off, you should be ready, and even better: Already established with your .Tel's.
Think twice, befor your intend to drop your Dot Tel domain(s). Act fast, to get a Dot Tel name, as long as it is still available.
Don't forget, that the future of Internet, is in mobile computing, mobile Internet, mobile phones, and mobile websites. Desktop PC's are being replaced by mobile laptops with an aditional bigger external monitor, so that they can be used at home, as well as away from home. And soon, you will be able to interact (more) between your stored data on your smart phone, and your laptop. Let us say, you scan info on the go, with your smart phone, and download it to your laptop.
And so, why will you wan't to give up a good mobile Internet address, if things are developing so promissing?

This is the homepage of the gtalX project. gtalX is a Linux client for gtalk, the voip application of Google. It supports voice and text-based chat.
This is the homepage of the gtalX project. gtalX is a Linux client for gtalk, the voip application of Google. It supports voice and text-based chat. Before you download it, please read the 'How to install' paragraph below.
You can download the latest released version of gtalX here (currently version 0.0.4).
You can download the latest unstable version of gtalX here (it won't even always build, but it includes the latest changes)
We are hosted on sourceforge, at this address: http://sourceforge.net/projects/gtalx/.
Description
gtalX is based on the libjingle library (version 0.4.0) provided by Google. gtalX is implemented using QT 4.3. We have written gtalX on Zenwalk, one of the best Linux distributions. Download the live cd and give it a try!
The current stable version of gtalX is 0.0.4 (it is an alpha version). The currently implemented functionalities are:
* Login with your gmail account
* Voice chat with someone who has gtalX (under Linux) or Gtalk (under M$ Windows)
* Text chat with someone who has gtalX (under Linux) or Gtalk (under M$ Windows)
* Customizable chat icons
* Language support (translation to Hungarian and a chance to translate it to any other language)
* Taskbar icon (next to the clock)
Planned features for the next version are:
* File transfer (works in unstable! :-))
* Logging of user actions into a local log-file for easier bug reporting (of course without any personal data)
How to install on (K)Ubuntu 9.10
(Please let me know if you experience any problems with the packages!! My email address is in the Contact Us section below. I only got to test the deb files on KUbuntu 9.10.)
To install on 32-bit Ubuntu 9.10 you can try this EXPERIMENTAL deb file (this installs today's snapshot of the unstable branch).
To install on 64-bit Ubuntu 9.10 you can try this EXPERIMENTAL deb file (this installs today's snapshot of the unstable branch).
The way to use the deb file:
sudo dpkg -i gtalx_0.0.5_i386.deb
# or if you have 64 bit Ubuntu
sudo dpkg -i gtalx_0.0.5_amd64.deb
# you will get a dependency error after the above line so you'll need to execute this next:
sudo apt-get -f install
To remove this package execute:
sudo apt-get remove gtalx
How to build & install on most Linux distros
1. Install prerequisites
In general you'll need QT4, gcc and probably some other development packages that you need to build binaries on your system. If you want to upgrade to a new version, uninstall the old version first. I collected the dependency packages from Ubuntu, you'll need these libraries. Since you'll need to build gtalx, get development packages (if your distro has separate dev packages). Here is the list:
(build-essential)
libqt4-dev
libogg-dev
libtheora-dev
libsdl-dev
libavcodec-dev
libswscale-dev
libexpat1-dev
libraw1394-dev
libvorbis-dev
libgsm1-dev
libspeexdsp-dev
libmediastreamer0-dev
libortp-dev
For the ./make script to work properly I also needed the pkg-config package on Ubuntu.
If your distro has speex, mediastreamer2 and ortp (see the last 3 items in the above list) you can try what you get form there, but in general gtalx builds and installs these if your computer does not have them. There can easily be a version conflict here; if you are unsure and you do not use ubuntu, do not install these, let gtalx take care of them. Please make sure that you do not have ortp installed but mediastreamer2 not installed as these 2 are very closely related and mediastreamer2 will not build with versions of ortp that it does not expect. On Ubuntu 8.10, 9.04 and 9.10 it is safe to install the libmediastreamer0-dev and libspeexdsp-dev packages, on the rest either install speex, mediastreamer2 and ortp or none of these.
In my experience on Slackware 12 you'll simply need to install QT4.
On Zenwalk you'll need (use netpkg) qt4-devel*
2. Perform the build
* Extract the tar.gz file into any folder you like (tar -xvf
* Change into the created directory, add execute permissions to ./make (chmod +x ./make) and run ./make
3. Install
* Become superuser (su, or use sudo)
* Execute ./make install
If all is ok, after these steps you can execute gtalX by typing gtalx at the command prompt (or you can start it from the start menu).
If you want to uninstall, you should execute the uninstall script as root from the directory where you called ./make install. Actually after you have installed gtalX successfully, you can delete all the source and build files, but please keep the uninstall script. The uninstall script alone will let you uninstall gtalX, you won't need any other files to do that.
If you use the unstable version then on Ubuntu instead of the ./make install step you can create a deb package by running
./make ubuntu
Then proceed as usual about installing a deb file (if unsure, see above)
Comment:
We test/use gtalX on Slackware, Zenwalk and Kubuntu. If you are using a different distro and gtalx does not build, or there is another problem, please let us know. If you have a fix for the problem, we would gladly and gratefully integrate that fix into the software, but we do not have the time to test this software on any other distributions. Still, we surely hope that it will work on more than these 3 ones. Actually we know that it works on gentoo, opensuse and fedora as well.
Screenshot
How to translate
If you have an installed gtalX with our make script, in the /usr/share/gtalx/languagefiles directory you will find a file called Hungarian.txt. Copy that file; the name of the new file should be the English name of the language into which you are going to translate gtalX (e.g. French.txt or German.txt). If you start gtalX in an environment that is different from English, gtalX will load the file automatically. If no such file exists, it will print an error message that you can read if you start it from a console. E.g.
language file not found: /usr/bin/../share/gtalx/languagefiles/French.txt
Obvoiusly if you want to translate gtalX into French, you need to create a file called French.txt in the above mentioned directory. Once you have copied Hungarian.txt, edit it, and I think it is easy to figure out what is to be done.
The second line in Hungarian.txt is:
"Translated by"="Fordította: Békés József"
This is a text that will appear in the About dialog; put your own name so that it will be displayed in the About dialog.
If you start gtalX from your console, and a translation is missing, gtalX will complain and will tell you which item is missing in its output to the console. Otherwise it will substitute the English phrase for missing translations in the application.
If you want to translate on an English system, you can modify gtalX's language if you start it and specify the LANG environment variable, like this (if you enter this into the console, gtalX tries to start in German; since there is no German.txt it fails to do so...):
LANG=de_DE gtalx
If you have any questions, just send us an email to the address specified in the Contact us section below. If you have a language file we would be happy to get it; please send it to the same email address and we'll include it in the software.
Contact us
The authors of gtalX are: Erika Bekes, Oliver Leahy and Jozsef Bekes. If you want to contact us, you can send us an email to bjdodo at hotmail dot com.
Licensing
Since this is the first open-source application we have written, we might not have done everything as required. If you find that we are breaking the copyright or any other law in any way, please let us know and we'll do the best to correct the mistakes. We would like to give this code to the open-source community, and we would like to offer this application to all Linux users, but we do not want anyone to be able to sell our code, or make any money from it, so our intention is to place this software under GPL3.
