.im domains now available for registration
Jul 12th
Yeah lots of webmaster talks going about .im domains these days. .im stands for the Isle of Man which is is a self-governing crown dependency located within the British Isles although constitutionally separate from the United Kingdom. In 1996 the Isle of Man Government obtained permission to use the im National Top Level Domain (TLD) and has ultimate responsibility for its use. The domain is managed on a daily basis by Domicilium (IOM) Limited, an island based internet service provider.
So is it worth to buy? answer is yes, because .im can be called as instant massaging and its a very short extension. So the official domain registrar is www.nic.im and a domain costs £40 per domain but www.name.com offers one year registration for just $5, But renewal fee can be high after 1 year! .im domains will be really worth to buy and there are nice small letter domains available right now for registration. 
I just bought www.Proxify.im for my new proxy site! 
Buy your domains right now people.

China blocks bing
Jun 26th
OMG Chinese….. They have become a powerful country in the world now. Chinese products are everywhere. But Chinese government sucks when the topic comes to the internet. This problem is not about their speeds . China has the worlds biggest firewall AKA Great firewall. I think you know that . So recently Chinese government included one of biggest sites currently drooling over the internet. That is “bing” microsoft’s new search engine which competes with google. Looks like china sailing a tight ship by blocking famous sites such as Twitter, Flickr, Bing, Live.com, Hotmail.com, Blogger and a number of other sites. According to china the reason is politics lol.
South Korean Broadband World’s Fastest
May 26th
All people who use internet would like to have maximum internet speed for the money they pay. But who gets that their advertised speed? Most of the people don’t get the speed as advertised by the ISP (Internet Service Provider). USA hosts the worlds biggest and largest Data Centers. Imagine Google’s container data center solution.,
I think its a very good idea for placing Data Centers. Oh I’m out of my topic . I want to tell you that the Japanese people are very lucky they got average of 93,693 Mbits per second internet speed on 2007 which is the best average speeds in the world. Wish I were there . According to 2009 DSL Broadband speed Rankings in world Korean internet speeds are fastest now. They got their connection on Fiber-Optic cable with free VOIP. USA hosts most of data centers in the world but the people are bit unlucky because the US came in at 17th at 8,860 Mb/sec. Here are the average speed charts
