I managed to get hold of my .asia domains and some…
Looks like Careerone.asia has gone to someone else besides News Ltd, Oops! On the whois look up it is registered to a logistics company in Australia. (Be careful Mr Whoever you are, news have big pockets and good lawyers if you infringe their trademark).
Linkme.asia has been registered to someone in San Pablo City.
It’s auction time for mycareer.asia. It will be interesting to see what amount they are willing to pay. Check here for auction updates.
Safe are seek.asia, Jobx.asia, nowhiring.asia and jobsjobsjobs.asia ,well done.
.asia Landrush Kicks Off Today
February 21, 2008 by Geoff Jennings · 1 Comment
The Landrush phase for .Asia domain names started at about 10p.m. last night our time. It ends on the 12th March 2008. What this means is that any member of the general public can apply for webestate in Asia. If uncontested, the space is yours. If it is contested, you will be asked to enter a bidding process for ownership.
The timing of the Landrush didn’t aid my already well-documented insomnia as I spent the good part of last night buying up on Asian webestate. It was worth the dark patches under my eyes this morning. This is the kind of opportunity folks are witness to only every few generations. It represents the chance to be a pioneer on untouched land. It’s great to see that Seek, Career Builder and Montser have secured their slice of Asian cyberspace, but where were the other players? C’mon guys, surely you’re not that hung up on your need for beauty sleep?
