We're back from this week's very successful DOMAINfest Global conference in Hollywood, California. Oversee.net did a masterful job in staging this meeting and everyone on 

their team should be extremely proud of the product they produced. They certainly represented their company well but more importantly they pushed the entire industry forward, an accomplishment that will benefit everyone in the domain business, whether or not they were able to attend the show. 

We have a  couple of other notes to add to the daily posts we filed from the conference. Oversee announced they would join EuroDNS to stage a conference in Paris, France at the Meridien Hotel June 19-20 (more information on this show can be found at DomainerMeeting.com). This event will dovetail nicely with the ICANN meeting in Paris June 22-27. Also, we noted that over $3.1 million in domains were sold during the two-day SnapNames Live auctions at DOMAINfest. If you would like to review the entire list of names sold, those are available here.

Now that we're back we will immediately start sifting through our piles of show notes and hundreds of photographs to produce our comprehensive conference wrap-up article that we expect to post on our home page by this time next week. We'll barely have our bags unpacked before it is time to head out again to cover the T.R.A.F.F.I.C. West conference in Las Vegas February 18-21. That is always a great show and we plan to publish a T.R.A.F.F.I.C. preview article within the week to let you know what conference organizers Rick Schwartz and Howard Neu have in store for you this time around.
