GoogBlog domain from Indian teen regained by Google - SixChannels

A post by SixChannels:SixChannels got stunned that GOOGLE The best search engine in the the world of internet has managed to get back the domain name, Googblog.com from Gujarat school boy who owned this domain. Google had to move the World Intellectual Property Organisation (WIPO) to get the domain name from Surendranagar based 17-year-old Herit Shah, who owned the domain.

The internet search champion claimed that the word 'Goog' in the domain was it's stock sticker at the NASDAQ. After
studying on this issue by WIPO this week found merit in the claims of Google and asked Shah to transfer the domain name to the US company.

This teenager had received a letter from a Google's legal representatives based in Gurgaon asking him to return back the domain to the US search company under IPL norms.

But Shah defended his position, therefore Google filed a case at the WIPO in March, which finally took decision that he had to handover the domain name to Google.

Herit, who is writing XII exams this year has initiated the process of reverting the Googblog domain name to the internet giant. He expressed no declination and said that this incidence with Google had made him realise his worth.

SixChannels appreciate this young boys brave heart to face this type of incidence in his teen age....
