With billions of web pages online, you could spend a lifetime surfing the Web for broadcasting, following links from one page to another. Amusing perhaps, but not very efficient if you are after some specific broadcasting information. One of the biggest complaints we hear concerns the difficulty of finding targeted information. Where do you start? Searching the Internet requires part skill, part luck and a little bit of art. Fortunately, we are here to help with the hunt.
You've probably heard of search engines such as Yahoo!, Google, and AltaVista. There are literally dozens of these tools to help you locate the broadcasting information you're looking for. The trick is understanding how they work, so you can use the right tool for the job and if the returned list of broadcasting sites is useable. We've done this and our summary below will save you hours and hours of time. 8 million de-domains
by: Hans-Peter Oswald
DENIC, the registry of the German Top Level Domain (TLD) has announced, that it has received the eight millionth application for the registration of a de-domain. The de-domain has the position as the world's favourite Country Code TLD, ahead of .uk, which has about 3.7 million registrations. The de-domains are also numerically stronger than nearly all the generic Top Level Domains that are used throughout the world, such as .org, .net, .info and .biz. Only one thecom-domain with more than 30 million domains is more often registered than the de-domain.

.de 7.981.014 (Increment compared to one month ago: 89.793)
.at 367.987 (Increment compared to one month ago: 4.766)
.com 31.017.772 (Increment compared to one month ago: 750.631)
.net 4.999.073 (Increment compared to one month ago: 88.952)
.org 3.138.385 (Increment compared to one month ago: 37.607)
.info 1.919.331 (Increment compared to one month ago: 683.846)
.biz 1.041.432 (Increment compared to one month ago: 13.118)
.us 881.411 (Increment compared to one month ago: 6.395)
The de-domain is not totally liberalized, as it seems. Foreign companies and individuals can register also de-domains and sell products and services to the attractive German market by websites, but they must have a German Admin-C. DENIC-Member and ICANN accredited registrar Secura provides automatically this German Admin-C during the registration process.
