Great find!

This is a very exciting time for IDN holders, as we are waiting for Microsoft's IE7 auto-update. Over the next several weeks millions of people around the world will discover that they are able to type in URLs in their native languages.

And, yes, we are expecting a ton of traffic, which is already being effectively monetized at ND and Sedo, as Google's revenue share from outside the US is approaching 50%.

Re: google IE 7 drives foreign language domain names - NetworkWorld.com

Yes, it's a good article and I think we'll see many more of them within the next couple of months.

I believe that IDN will be part of the 'mainstream' domain market within the next 6 months -max. With this in mind, I think it's now time for this 'them and us' type of attitude, between IDN and ASCII holders, to disappear; IDN and ASCII are now on the SAME playing field, and domain name values will change as a result...

Firefox 2 (an IDN-enabled browser) is now being downloaded at 30 downloads per second, and god only knows what IE7 is doing (!).

Embrace IDN. You may not understand what the symbols and foreign letters/words mean, but that's not to say entire populations in other counties don't...

Regards,

This idn thing is real? Hell, I still don't know how you guys type those boxes in your browsers.

Wait you mean those aren't boxes? Those thing-a-ma-bobs are languages?
