New .mob domain applied for

Nine firms have applied to the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN) in a bid to register a new Top Level Domain (TLD).

It's suspected the new TLD will be .mob and will be used to strictly specify a mobile based web site.

We currently have two mobile versions of our own website, one is for PDA's and the other is for WAP based mobile phones.

Some of the nine firms who have applied to ICANN are Microsoft, Nokia, HP, Orange, Samsung and a couple more.

We'll let you know if they are successful or not.
