The ".mobi" domain

Last week we talked about the DNS, different models of top level domains, cybersquatting, etc. So you might find this story interesting and relevant. It describes one of the newest TLDs, ".mobi" which is intended for mobile devices. The article does a good job capturing the issues (particularly for larger firms).

Akamai and service provision on the Internet

I came across this article in BusinessWeek today that you might find interesting. The article provides some insight into how services are provided on the Internet. Since you are now looking into network neutrality, let me pose a few questions for you:

• Do you think Akamai cares about the network neutrality debate? Why or why not?
• Does the deeper understanding of the Internet's service delivery "architecture" change how you think about network neutrality? How?
