Readers from the US may have a hard time realizing how tricky it was to register an italian domain name – .it domain registration required the registrant to send a fax and wait a couple of days.
Occasionally this procedure had to be repeated, since the fax was unreadable.
Finally, we got rid of this waste of time and we can register .it domains like ordinary .com or .net domains!
Thank you Italy for taking so many years to understand that the internet is here!
