The new service, called www.bet247.co.uk, lets users gamble on sport, the pools, the National Lottery and Littlewood's own lottery service. BT Cellnet customers can also place bets using a mobile phone for no extra charge.

Littlewoods has decided to carry the tax burden in an effort to set itself apart from other online gambling sites. Non-UK companies -- exempt from British tax laws -- can already offer tax-free betting online.

Littlewoods is calling "for a major change in the tax regulations in this month’s Budget, which would allow the company to be more competitive internationally."

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?
