I have just discovered a URL shortening Service that has IDNs. When creating a custom URL the text you provide can be Unicode and so can be any language. Here are some shortened URLs I have created: http://✩.ws/国际化域名 http://❥.ws/拉夫堡市场 http://⌘.ws/ユニコード http://✿.ws/小山 http://➽.ws/オンドレ http://➹.ws/트위터 http://➔.ws/国际化 Another Unicode Savvy URL shortening service is http://doiop.com/ doiop.com/Ноттингем doiop.com/ноттингем

For many years I have used mechanisms like Character Palette for special pictorial symbols. Over time one acquires a set of frequently used symbols. There are also some symbols available by pressing key combinations. I do not find either of these methods satisfactory. Recently I discovered an alternative method for typing pictorial symbols when using the Kotoeri Japanese Input Method on my Mac and iPod Touch. When writing Japanese one can invoke the Candidate Window by pressing the space bar after typing some Japanese. The Candidate Window lists all the possibilities for the word one has typed. Some Japanese words have associated symbol(s) which are selectable in the Candidate Window. Below, I list those word/symbol associations I have, so far, found. でんわ=telephone: type でんわ to get ☎ あめ=rain: type あめ to get ☂ ゆき=snow: type ゆき to get ☃ くも=cloud: type くも to get ☁ ほし=star: type ほし to get ★ or ☆ まる=circle: type まる to get ○ or ● or ◎ or ◉ おんせん=hot spring: type おんせん to get ♨ おんぷ=musical note...

  One of the modules I teach at Loughborough University ラフバラ大学 is International Computing . This was a new module in the 2008-2009 academic year. It is an optional final year module. The uptake this year (2009-2010 academic year) has increased from last year's 14 students to 24 students. The topics I cover in my module include: Characteristics of Languages/Scripts Software Internationalization & Localization Character Sets Unicode Unicode Transformation Formats Fonts Keyboard Mappings Input Methods Internationalizing Websites Country Codes Language Tags IDNs (Internationalized Domain Names) Internationalizing LaTeX This year I am including an additional topic which is the Language Features of the iPod Touch/iPhone.

  There has recently been much publicity and controversy concerning IDNs. Here I are my thoughts on the future of IDNs or maybe my thoughts on what I consider should be the future for IDNs.   English is currently the accepted International language and so most Domain Names are ASCII. So what should an organisation do about their Domain Names? Should they just stick with their ASCII names or also use IDNs?   I consider that an Organisation's Domain Name strategy should be determined by their customer base or desired customer base. A Local/Regional Organisation should have Domain Names in both their local language and ASCII. An International Organisation, on the other hand, should have many Domain Names in many languages.   My observation of many International Organisations' Websites is that, mostly, the content is predominantly/solely English. So why bother with multiple IDNs in multiple languages when they just resolve to a Website written in Engl...
