The reason is not just that people can't find you. For companies with mobile apps, especially, having the right domain name is not as critical as it used to be for getting users. The problem with not having the .com of your name is that it signals weakness. Unless you're so big that your reputation precedes you, a marginal domain suggests you're a marginal company. Whereas (as Stripe shows) having x.com signals strength even if it has no relation to what you do. < <http://paulgraham.com/name.html> http://paulgraham.com/name.html> CNNIC Released the 2014 Global Chinese Phishing Attack Trends Report Recently, CNNIC National Engineering Laboratory for Naming and Addressing, in cooperation with Anti-Phishing Working Group (APWG) and Anti-Phishing Alliance of China (APAC), released the 2014 Global Chinese Phishing Attack Trends Report. < <http://www1.cnnic.cn/AU/MediaC/rdxw/2015n/201508/t20150807_52709.htm> http://www1.cnnic.cn/AU/MediaC/rdxw/2015n/201508/t20150807_52709.htm> Renewal rates remain constant for .eu in Q2 2015 The latest progress report from the .eu registry, EURid, has shown that for nine consecutive years? .eu has maintained its high renewal rate.

Since April 2011 APNIC has been restricted to handing out addresses from a ?last chance? address pool, and has limited the amount of addresses allocated to each applicant to a maximum of 1,024 addresses, or the equivalent of a /22. In this article I?d like to review where APNIC is up to with its remaining pools of IPv4 addresses. < <http://www.potaroo.net/ispcol/2015-08/last8.html> http://www.potaroo.net/ispcol/2015-08/last8.html> Address Transfers in APNIC In 2010 the Asia Pacific Regional Address Policy community adopted a policy that permitted address holders in the region to transfer address registration records, enabling an aftermarket in IPv4 addresses to operate with the support of the APNIC registry function. While APNIC was still able to allocate addresses to meet demands there was very little in the way of activity in this market, but once APNIC was down to its last /8 of addresses in April 2011 the level of transfer activity has picked up. In this article I?d like to take a more detailed look at APNIC?s transfer log and see what it can tell us about the level of activity in the address market in the Asia Pacific region. < <http://www.potaroo.net/ispcol/2015-08/transfers.html> http://www.potaroo.net/ispcol/2015-08/transfers.html> Building IPv6 capacity in our region Over the last few years, APNIC and the ITU have been collaborating on IPv6 capacity building in developing economies. < <http://blog.apnic.net/2015/08/07/building-ipv6-capacity-in-our-region/> http://blog.apnic.net/2015/08/07/building-ipv6-capacity-in-our-region/> Global IPv6 Summit to Be Held on September 7th 2015 September 7th 2015 will see the Global IPv6 Next Generation Internet Summit 2015 (hereinafter referred to as IPv6 Summit) held in the Presidential Hotel Beijing.
