Steek becomes registrar with the .steek extension

April 1, 2008

Steek online storage will now benefit from an exclusive differentiation and explicit recognition: a .steek extension.

All the SteekR end users will be able to register a .steek domain. The .steek name must be between 3 and 63 characters and use letters from A to Z and numbers from 0 through 9. No spaces or special characters are permitted.

It’s estimated that a large part of the 1,2 million Steek accounts will use the service as an acronym for online storage. With the .steek name, individuals will publicize that they are sharing and streaming personnal data, allowing a variety of devices to become more effective internet tools, providing everybody with direct access to enhance tools like IPTV or mobile device as means of generating new contact and relationship.

“We are looking at the birth of the first truly storage oriented domain name” enthused Christophe Camborde, CEO of Steek, “From a business perspective, it makes the marketing of Web addresses more explicit and useful”.

Notes Christophe, “Even if a company or individual’s names are not trademarked, it still makes sense to try to control available urls. Acting now, while .steek domain names are still readily available, is a good way of maintaining future access, as the sharing and streaming usage is booming!”

The first domain name created is http://www.fanta.steek , fantastic no?
