Our new T.R.A.F.F.I.C. South Beach preview article wound up covering much more ground than we anticipated. Conference Co-Founder Rick Schwartz took off the gloves saying domain owners are getting shafted while their "partners" roll in the dough. Schwartz also laid out how T.R.A.F.F.I.C. plans to respond.
Today in the Lowdown at DNJournal.com: A new domain conference has been added to the crowded October schedule and T.R.A.F.F.I.C. announces a March 2011 show on the West Coast. Plus, wondering where YOUR parking revenue went? More fingers are pointing at Google and Yahoo.
Trade-in your domains for a ticket to TRAFFIC South Beach. This month's Epik conference had a unique twist — you could pay for conference admission by trading in domain names. I was a bit surprised, yet excited, to learn this morning that you'll be able to do the same thing for October's TRAFFIC conference. Rob
U.S. control of internet can be misused, leading to countermeasures by other countries. What's wrong with the Combating Online Infringement and Counterfeits Act being proposed in the U.S. Congress? The problem is that the U.S. government is trying to use the fact that VeriSign is located in the U.S. as a way to shut down
ICANN meeting coming to America next Spring. For the first time in a long time ICANN will hold its international meeting in the United States March 13-18, 2011. That means U.S. residents won't have to make a trip that involves three plane hops and 12 different time zones to attend the meeting. You probably don't
Technical infrastructure can handle 1,000 new TLDs a year, but there will be other bottlenecks. One of the interesting things to come from ICANN's closed door board retreat over the weekend is this tidbit: ICANN thinks it can delegate up to 1,000 top level domain names a year without technical root scaling problems. Staff has

New York City event will educate about Internationalized Domain Names (IDNs). Few topics have received greater attention this year than IDNs. So it's fitting that the first ever "IDN Event and Auction" will take place October 30, 2010 at the Haru Restaurant in New York City at 7 pm. The event is organized by IDNTools
I have always been a fan of .org domain names due to the huge "trust" factor the domain names have and add in the fact that they rank well on search engines and that may be why we are seeing several very nice domain name sales this year for the .org TLD.
In fact, 2010 produced
Earlier today I wrote about a couple .org domain name sales and one of those happened to be PlaygroundEquipment.org which sold for $5,000 over at Sedo. During some research I did for the story, I often check past domain name sales matching the keyword and when I did this, I discovered two more recent sales
Although Research In Motion purchased the domain name BlackPad.com in July 2010 and sparked a large amount of talk that the domain name purchase was likely the new name for the expected tablet computer from Blackberry®, RIM announced today the real name for their tablet computer is:
PlayBook

Anyone that's been around the domain industry for any length of time has almost certainly come across DigiMedia-owned domain names. You've probably also heard about Scott Day, the company's founder whose previous career before domain names was in the farming field (pun intended). I read an article in Mashable about a new startup called Bump,...
Canada-based Blackberry maker, Research in Motion, announced the name of its highly anticipated tablet computer.

Okay, okay, those of you that watch Beer Fridays will know that Pat isn't super new. He actually joined our Dev team earlier in the summer as a software developer, and right away he found himself at home reviewing beers with us in front of a camera. My kind of programmer. :) Pat is a
I can't remember the last time we, or any auction company, were able to release this much inventory nearly a month before the show. We are working hard on putting together a list that will have a high sell-through rate. With the high-attendance rate that T.R.A.F.F.I.C. Miami is expected to have and the list that
Morning Folks!! In this post I will give you some rapid fired do's and don’ts that will change how you make more sales for more dollars and KNOW when you have reached THEIR top dollar. Nothing worse than a guy having a $250,000 budget for a domain that you end up selling to them for $250. Want to avoid that?? Pay close attention. 1. DO NOT set a pr...
Morning Folks!! After a 30 second discussion early this morning, Howard and I have agreed to do TRAFFIC West just before the ICANN meeting in San Francisco this March.

More aboutLaw Bytes»By Michael GeistInternet Law ColumnistGovernments have long sought ways to regulate Internet activity, whether for the purposes of taxation, content regulation, or the application of national laws. Effective regulatory measures have often proven elusive, however, since, unlike the Internet, national laws typically end at the bor...
Catchy domain name stands out in a crowd of print mailers (another example of how and why domains matter in a way we rarely think of.)Got cited for driving with my lights off (valet actually turned them off and I never noticed because the street was well lit and I was 1/4 of a mile from home).

The event takes place on Saturday, October 30th in New York City and includes a complimentary Sushi...

Normal people get up at 8:00 am and start their day with a mug of coffee and some hardy breakfast and what do I do? I go through thousands of domains expiring on NameJet and I manually filter out the junk, then post the dictionary results at my blog. Five weeks ago, I received an
