All Your Communication Under One Name -- that one works, but is also true for any other Top Level Domain. The Mobile Presence is what TEL gives as advantage, as you can store information in the TEL and access it by mobile devices. Update Anytime -- it is simply not true, as update sometimes takes 6 hours or a night long, quite enough to fly to London and come back to Paris, and your friends and associates would not be able to contact you over the TEL domain. Search Engine Ranking -- that is great benefit of TEL domains, but then again, you can easily build any other Top Level Domain for search engine rankings. Make Money and No Hidden Cost are just another two benefits to fill the table of benefits and for nothing serious. Data in the TEL domain is easy to copy to other TEL domains, by using DNS system, so there will be many people disappointed after hard hand work, just to find out that someone has copied commercial directory into his TEL domain. All in all, TEL domain is a childish CMS system which is useful for people without own website, it is limited product, but has use for online marketing, provided you manage the TEL domain by third party tools.

Whats the point on storing your contact data on .tel if you can do it directly on your own website. It just adds another layer of work. You can do everything on a normal website as well. Whats even worse, I have a .tel domain and it takes allot of time to update changes. 20 to 30 minutes. Thats bad. Very bad. The idea is to have real data updated on real time. I update my website in 5 seconds, and data on .tel takes 20 minute to 40 minutes to reflect online. Scott has a good point and I wondered exactly the same.

You can have your own "click-to-communicate technology" by adding callto: to the A HREF tag. This is nothing new. Webmasters just don't use it.
