More than 1.5 million ‘.nl’ domain names registered

[evibe]

On 25 May 2005, the number of registered ‘.nl’ domain names passed the 1.5 million mark. The ‘.nl’ domain is now firmly established as the world’s third-largest country code Top-Level Domain. Only ‘.de’ (with more than eight million names) and ‘.uk’ (with more than four million) are bigger in numeric terms. What’s more, there is no sign of growth slowing. In 2002, the number of names registered went up by 17 per cent; in 2003 the rise was 25 per cent, and in 2004 it was 33 per cent. In the first few months of this year, the rate of growth has again exceeded 30 per cent.

It was only in November 1998 that the 50,000th ‘.nl’ domain name was registered. The 100,000th followed in September 1999, the 250,000th in March 2000 and the 500,000th in November of the same year. The milestone of one million ‘.nl’ domain names was passed on 19 December 2003.

I think it is Double Dutch. Don't understand it either but as the Internet expands you will see a lot more of this. However, there will be instant translation tools available that will help you get the gist of what is being said. Dutch is not well covered at the moment, but you can at least get rudimentary translation from commercially important groups like Japanese and Chinese.
