- April 13, 2012: When the Real Fun Begins
- by FairWinds Partners. GTLD Strategy, February 29, 2012. "The new gTLD application deadline is approaching fast, with just about six weeks left to submit.

- Internet Infrastructure: Challenges in Developing a Public/Private Recovery Plan, GAO-08-212T
- Government Accountability Office, October 23, 2007. "Since the early 1990s, growth in the use of the Internet has revolutionized the way that our nation communicates and conducts business.
