InterNIC (Network Information Center) is an
independent agency set up to serve the Internet community. It makes the rules,
administers the registration process, and maintains the official data base of
registered Domain Names. All applications are subject to InterNIC approval.
InterNIC does not screen names for registered trademarks or other rights.
Since domain names are registered on a first come, first serve basis, it is
best to register Internet business and brand names before they are taken.
