UPDATE

I'm not sure if anyone noticed, or if anyone cares, but we changed the Translator so that it now translates the languages of Korean, Japanese and Chinese.  The reason is because all of Asia is going to be entering the internet starting today.   In fact, 80% - 90% of all Asian households will be online by the year 2010, with an estimated 400 million users.  The U.S currently has 250 mil people online, so Asia is expected to surpass the U.S. in a very short period of time.   

The reason why China, Japan, Korea, and all of the other countries are not using the internet is not because of their controlling governments like most people think.  It's because ALL website domain names have to be in English letters, so with all of the .Com's, .Nets, etc ... already gone, the Asia market has never really been able to create website names that make any sense, or that  anyone could ever remember. Essentially Asia has been shut out of the internet for years, mostly because of “ICANN” being slow to fix the problem by adding new domain extensions.   

Anyway, long story short, yesterday the new generic extension of  ".ASIA" entered the market so Asia can now start launching their own websites.  It was an absolute feeding frenzy yesterday to buy the names when they were made available to the general public for the first time.  

For AFT, we picked up the domain name A-I.Asia so that we can launch a one-page website using all of the Asian languages, which will be used to direct the Asian community to AFT.  The search engines can also read all of the Asian languages so this will give us an immediate Asian presence.

We will let everyoine know as soon as we get the new Asian site up.
