Telnic claim to have a global directory. Do they mean Telpages with those bad results?

Definitely Online Yellow Pages.
Google is a spotty joke, just a step up from Telpages.
Others, there are none that are as comprehensive and trustworthy.
Too bad that Telnic didn't get it done using a REAL directory.
Without it there are no reasons to have a .tel ultimately.
ANYONE can get a free template and use their real tld to do what .tel is doing.
contact.google.com can easily created to be a .tel style contact page viewable on any device ... and anyone can use their current domain name without buying a new domain.
The ONLY reasons to buy a .tel are twofold:
1. Someone has more dollars than sense, doesn't mind throwing money away at Telnic.
2. There is a real directory to get found in, like Yellow Pages.
Guess that pretty much sums up the entire .tel effort.
Everyone loved the idea based on 2. above.
Everyone left after 2 years of declining registrations is now 1. alone.
Sad.
