This is another awesome news, salah satu blogpost (Mashable) yang aku baca pada jumaat lepas, adalah berkenaan pihak ICANN bercadang untuk menjadikan domain names dibuka kepada non-latins characters bermula pada 2010 nanti.
Bermakna pada masa akan datang, domain names bukan sahaja terhad kepada characters rumi sahaja kita lihat pada hari ini, malah juga pada masa akan datang, jawi, hindi, chinese, arabic dan pelbagai lagi bahasa semua akan muncul pada nama domain tersebut.
Salah satu pendekatan kepada 1World if you ask me.. 
“The coming introduction of non-Latin characters represents the biggest technical change to the Internet since it was created four decades ago,” said ICANN chairman Peter Dengate Thrush. “Right now Internet address endings are limited to Latin characters – A to Z. But the Fast Track Process is the first step in bringing the 100,000 characters of the languages of the world online for domain names.
This is only the first step, but it is an incredibly big one and an historic move toward the internationalization of the Internet ,” said Rod Beckstrom, ICANN’s President and CEO. “The first countries that participate will not only be providing valuable information of the operation of IDNs in the domain name system, they are also going to help to bring the first of billions more people online – people who never use Roman characters in their daily lives.”
