ICANN Approves Two New Domain Names

Filed under: Aviran Mordo @ 1:13 pm

The Internet’s key oversight agency (ICANN) gave final approval Friday to two new Internet suffixes — “.jobs” for the human resources community and “.travel” for the travel industry.

It could take months, though, for the domain names to start appearing in use, as companies running those names now must set up registration and other procedures.

Negotiations continue on two other names already given preliminary approval: “.post” for postal services and “.mobi” targeting mobile services.
