Palestinians get .ps
Haaretz reports that sites belonging to the Palestinian Authority are now using a national TLD suffix - .ps - even though Palestine is not recongised as an individual country.
The move was announced by Palestinian Prime Minister Ahmed Qureia, and is part of the Palestinian Authority's electronic government program, which seeks to better connect government operations with public awareness.
According to research last year, nearly 10% of Palestinian homes have fixed access to the internet, with nearly two-thirds of respondents having an e-mail address.
There are over 40 telecoms providers in the Palestinina territories, with Paltel covering about one-third of internet traffic from the areas.
