In its report -- Cybernauts Awake! -- published Wednesday, the church tries to help people tackle the moral and spiritual questions raised by new technology and urges IT professionals to "love your user as yourself" and users to "remember systems are dust".

Co-author Professor Simon Peyton Jones describes Internet-enabled computers as "dream machines" but warns that "every dream has its dark side". Among concerns raised by the report is the idea that e-commerce will destroy town centres and increase inner-city deprivation.

I wonder, who needs .asia domain? I cannot imagine, what would be useful for Microsoft.asia? Toyota.asia? Then let's register .europe (if .eu is too short). Or perhaps Microsoft.southamerica, Dell.australiaandnewzealand, Coca-Cola.africa... Sound funny? Then why not just use the global and country domains? Or perhaps it is time to drop the domains at all?
