		<description><![CDATA[Data is far from insufficient, but still, the equation does not compute. As I&#8217;ve written many times before, numbers cannot be disputed. And the numbers about .tel are saying that there is zero growth in that TLD. While 200k .tel domains were registered between launch to mid-summer of last year, the remainder of the year [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[On Friday, I had an interesting conversation on twitter with Justin Hayward, communications director of TelNic &#8211; the registry of the .tel domain TLD. For a person in an upper management position with the TelNic Registry, Justin came forth as being very defensive of his product, forgetting how twitter is a public medium. I understand [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Forgive me, Father, for I have sinned. It&#8217;s been one day since my last .tel registration. Today I received the news from my CPA about how much I&#8217;ll have to pay in taxes this year. It will be much less than what I expected; just a partial &#8220;scalping&#8221; and not a full one. My CPA [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Sometimes one needs a lexicon to decipher the perfectly massaged texts presented by corporations on their web sites. This is the case with the FAQ section on the .tel Registry&#8217;s web site, TelNIC.org I will attempt to explain what each grand statement means, in plain &#8220;domainese&#8221;: All existing Top Level Domains (e.g. .com, .net, .org, [...]]]></description>
