...in glorious Devon.
Drove 540 miles on all types of roads, visited cities, towns and villages, went on numerous boat trips, chilled out in beautiful Dartmouth and Salcombe, and during all this time I saw not one single commercial use of .tel in signage.
There were rowing boats and RIBs (rigid inflatable boats) with web addresses on them, loads of shops with them, vans and lorries galore along the way festooned with .co.uk (and some with .com and .net) addresses.
But not one .tel anywhere to be seen - it's as if it doesn't exist !
I suppose I should have my silver BMW Coupe signwritten really - but can't bring myself to do this !
I will however use my new racing dinghy to promote my domain business - just not sure whether I should get .tel signwritten on it or just stick with .com which everybody knows and understands ?
"Joe Public" has no concept, knowledge, appreciation or experience of .tel !
Yet Telnic/Telnames have still not undertaken any serious worldwide, or even national, marketing of the .tel product !
Reminds me of the old joke "I used to be complacent, but now I just can't be bothered !"
Are we all living in a fools paradise, expecting .tel to hit mainstream somehow of it's own accord, or that Telnic/Telnames really are "just about to start" the worldwide marketing which is absolutely essential for .tel's success ?
