The Lowdown



Jan. 15, 2008 Post

Here's the The Lowdown from DNJournal.com! Updated daily to fill you in on the latest buzz going around the domain name industry!

Compiled by Ron Jackson (Editor/Publisher)

 

The DOMAINfest Global Conference gets underway Monday (Jan. 21) at the Renaissance Hotel in Hollywood, California and we've gotten several bits of new information from show organizers to supplement the details included in the conference preview article we 

published earlier this month. If you are planning to attend you can save $200 by pre-registering for the event. The fee will rise from $795 to $995 if you wait until opening day Monday to sign up onsite. 

Organizers just announced an added attraction for the opening  night cocktail party, reporting that Playboy

stars Sara Underwood, Jennifer Korbin and Brande Roderick will be on hand to meet attendees and pose with those who would like to get their picture snapped with a Playmate.

The conference will be featuring live domain auctions both Tuesday and Wednesday, Jan. 22-23 (conducted by SnapNames Live). During those events, several names will also be auctioned off 

to raise funds for Grassroots.org. If you would be willing to donate a domain drop a note to [email protected], giving then the domain name and auth code so it can be

transferred to Grassroots.org (be sure the domain is unlocked). Also provide the name you wish to appear on your IRS tax receipt-of-donation letter that will acknowlede the value of the donation for tax purposes, based on an appraisal by Moniker or auction value (domains 

Frank Schilling

estimated to be valued at or over $1000 will be appraised for you. Those estimated to be valued under $1000 can also be appraised if the donor wishes to cover the appraisal fee). In a fun twist for this election year, the charity list will also include some fun domains like FrankSchillingForPresident.com.

Speaking of Frank, another conference highlight will be a Domainer Town Hall Meeting Tuesday morning (Jan. 22) that will be hosted by famed domain investor Frank Schilling. Attendees will be taking part in an interactive discussion on the domain industry and where it's going. Schilling will field questions and share his insights on what the future holds for the industry as well as discuss significant trends affecting the space. Even if you can't be there in person you can submit questions for the Town Hall. Just send your submissions to  

[email protected] by Thursday (Jan. 17) and be sure to include your full name and company name so you can be acknowledged in the Town Hall if your question is selected.
