I agree.


URL as only one word(alphabets) no use of dots, slashes and other funky characters, like while you want to go to google you simply type google

Google might acquire Hipmunk which already uses GWT.


Why do you think Hipmunk uses GWT (by which I assume you mean Google Web Toolkit)? The source for www.hipmunk.com pulls in jquery, but doesn't have the history iframe or <module>.nocache.js reference that one would expect to see for a GWT application.


No, we don't.


Happy Birthday BitTorrent!!!

Nagar means City/Village in Hindi which originally comes from Sanskrit "nagaram"


Education in one's mother tongue is not a human right.


What would happen to top level domain names like .com, .net etc ? Even they use non-latin characters before .com, .net etc "com", "net" is still Latin.


Not exactly. There are already IDN TLDs in existence.

More specifically, the "." is still a separator. Any component of the domain name can independently have xn-- and it will be interpreted as Punycode. Today you could register ujjvala.السعودية and it would be completely valid.


I don't think they would let . be part of beginning or ending of the domain name.


You can have http://ai/ so I guess you can have anything.


And I thought x.org was unusually short...


. is by itself a Latin character.
