ICANN receives 10 applications for new TLDs

[Chris Chiu]

ICANN has announced that it "has received ten applications for new sponsored top-level domains (sTLD's)," including .asia, .cat (for Catalonia), .jobs, .mail, .mobi (for mobile devices), .post and .xxx, as well as two applications for .tel. ICANN has not approved any new TLDs since November 2000, when it gave its blessing to 7 top-level domains, including .info, .pro and .museum.
