HONG KONG, Jan. 27 /PRNewswire-Asia/ -- As the World Economic Forum (WEF) kicks off in Switzerland talking about economic regeneration and the further bridging of the digital divide, Telnic Limited ( http://www.telnic.org ), the registry operator for the new .tel top level domain (TLD), announced that the host town for the WEF is amongst many municipalities, towns and cities that are securing their .tel domain names.
Davos.tel, Davos-Kloisters.tel and Davos-Congress.tel will enable the town and its amenities to be accessible from any device connected to the internet, very quickly and at very low cost.
"2009 will bring a revolution in the ability for organizations to be more accessible to individuals online as the ease of publishing complex information choices simply and affordably is achieved with the .tel," explained Khashayar Mahdavi, CEO of Telnic Limited.
