New TLD goes live

From ComputerWorld (via CNN): ” After months of preparations, a few Web sites are beginning to
appear online with new .info top level domain addresses that can be visited
using Internet browser software.

More than 52,000 .info domain names have been registered since July, according to
Afilias Ltd., the company designated to maintain the Internet database of all .info
addresses. Those new domains went live on Saturday, though they aren’t
necessarily yet online. Another 250,000 unique .info addresses are in the pipeline,
waiting to be placed in the database so they may eventually be used by Internet
visitors.”
