I was sorry to hear that Dark Blue Sea CEO Richard Moore would be leaving that post at the end of June.  After stepping down, Moore will continue to serve the DBS board as an 

Executive Director but once he leaves his current job I'm afraid we won't seeing as much of him as we have in the past. 

As most of you know, Dark Blue Sea is the parent company of Fabulous.com, one of the most highly regarded customer-centric companies in our industry. Many domainers have had the pleasure of getting to know Richard over the years as he ably represented Fabulous and DBS on the conference circuit - and even more so when Fabulous hosted their own unforgettable  T.R.A.F.F.I.C. conference last November on Australia's Gold Coast, near their home base in Brisbane

In their dealings with the domain community Richard and his team have consistently lived up to the company's most recognizable brand name - Fabulous. Though his role will change this summer we are hopeful that Moore will continue to be available to share his broad knowledge of the industry with all of us.

Dark Blue Sea CEO

Dark Blue Sea has named the company's current CFO, Gregory Platz, to fill the CEO position effective July 1. Gregory has been with the company since it was founded in 1999 so he obviously knows the firm inside out and we wish him the very best in his new assignment leading Dark Blue Sea.

A couple of other notes to pass along today - the preliminary agenda for this month's T.R.A.F.F.I.C. Silicon Valley conference (April 27-30 at the Santa Clara Marriott) has just been posted. You can get more information from our show preview interview with T.R.A.F.F.I.C. Co-Founder Rick Schwartz that was published in our latest newsletter

There is also news about this month's GeoDomain Expo in San Diego (April 23-25 at the Catamaran Resort). Tomorrow (Friday April 3) is the last day to take advantage of the special early bird registration fee ($595). It 

jumps $100 Saturday and will cost $400 more at the door. I'm looking forward to covering both the GeoDomain Expo and T.R.A.F.F.I.C. for you and hope to meet many of you in person at one or both of those events.
