Here's the The Lowdown from DN Journal,
updated daily
to fill you in on the latest buzz going around the domain name industry. 

The Lowdown is compiled by DN Journal Editor & Publisher Ron Jackson.

With DNCruise II Just 10 Weeks Away It's Time to Book Passage - Rates Go Up July 1

With DNCruise II just over 10 weeks away Patrick Ruddell (Chef Patrick), who promotes the world's only domain conference at sea, has started beating the drums for the event's return 

engagement September 5-10, 2011. Last year's event aboard the Carnival Imagination earned rave reviews from those onboard but Ruddell still decided to switch up the itinerary to keep things fresh.  

The debut event in October 2010 sailed out of Miami and made stops in Key West and the Bahamas. The 2011 cruise will leave from Tampa, Florida and make stops in Grand Cayman and Cozumel, Mexico.

The Grand Cayman stop on September 7th will be an especially big attraction because legendary domain investor Frank Schilling

The first DN Cruise was held aboard 
this Carnival ship in October 2010  

who lives there, will be meeting up with DN Cruise attendees. Ruddell said Schilling plans to join his visiting industry friends for a boat tour around the island, followed by a luncheon, sponsored by Escrow.com, where he will speak. For many, that alone will be worth the price of admission.

Speaking of the price, if you want to get the best deal available, you will want to book this week because the fare goes up July 1 (that increase is mandated by the cruise line, not Chef Patrick). If you act now you can get a shared interior cabin (Ruddell will hook you up with a roommate if you need one) for $499 ($559 starting July 1) or a shared window cabin for $579 (that goes up to $639 starting July 1). There will be another increase August 1, so the sooner you act the more you save. The rate covers all boarding fees, taxes, gratuities, room, all you can eat food, many cocktails and the excursion with Frank. 

Having been on last year's cruise I can tell you get a heck of lot for your money, even before you figure in the invaluable opportunity to hang out with industry experts and fellow domain investors for an entire week while cruising through the gorgeous Gulf of Mexico. I'm certainly looking forward to doing it again. You can find detailed information about the cruise on this FAQ page on their official site.
