The net needs this.  We all need this.  It’s a personal URL that can track you forever.

Some are asking whether it's a good idea.  Some hate the idea, but whether you like it or not, something like .TEL is in our future.  It's just a matter of time.

Have you ever hunted for a person after their email address changed and you lost it?  What about that old friend who changed his phone number?  .TEL hopes to be the new world directory.  Every person, every organization, every business, in one handy directory. 

Will they be successful?  I think so, but even if they bungle it, some one will do this eventually.  It's inevitable.

The only thing I don't like about it is that it will cost you $10/year to be in the directory.  This is masked as a TLD (top level domain) registration fee, but there will be other ways to monetize this and I hope they bring the price down.
