Profiles Now Available in VIP.tel Domains
SINGAPORE, Feb. 3 /PRNewswire-AsiaNet/ --
for the new .tel top level domain, today announced that all free trial
VIP.tel test domains have now been updated to support Profiles and now
contain all of the major elements of the personal functionality available
when .tel domains go live.
This new release enables people to share 'sets' of contact
information in their domain by grouping them under Profiles. These profiles
are user defined and can reflect different information according to the
situation the .tel owner is in at that time. As an example, a .tel owner may
set up a profile for 'home', 'work', 'travelling' or 'on vacation', all of
which reflect different contact methods or priorities of contact information
when someone accesses the domain. This enables the owner to quickly change
the 'status' of his .tel domain by switching on and off and reorganizing
contact information, including private contact information, with the click of
a mouse or the press of a screen or button on a mobile device.
Telnic has also developed applications for mobile devices
including the iPhone and the BlackBerry that enable people to change their
Profile with one quick click, changing the contact information view
instantly.
"Profiles provide the ability to manually or automatically
change the view of a .tel domain according to the time of day or activity
that the domain owner undertakes," explains Henri Asseily, CTO and Chief
Strategist at Telnic. "This adds the ability for people trying to contact the
owner of the domain to understand the options that are available and the
preferred methods of contact that a .tel owner wants them to use at any time
of the day. Now, even from my mobile device, I'll be able to change the
contact information that people see when I'm jumping on a plane or moving
from home to the office in seconds."

individuals wishing to register them for testing purposes from
