Climate change threatens '.tv' domain name

tuvalu.jpgA sobering word of advice is being given to those planning on setting up a new website using the '.tv' domain name: the internet suffix popular with tv channels, video bloggers and anyone whose '.com' address has already been snapped up. The reason: the Island of Tuvalu where the domains are registered is reportedly disappearing into the sea.

As far as I'm aware, this is the first time climate change has threatened a virtual location with extinction. Hippyshopper, of course, is registered with a global warming-proofed '.com' address, but that's more than can be said for this beautiful Island.
