3 Shows In 3 Weeks, 3 Completely Different Experiences - About a month ago I wrote a post about my plans to attend 3 trade shows in 3 weeks. When I first planned on hitting all three shows, TRAFFIC Vegas, DomainFest and Domainer Mardi Gras, I thought to myself there was going to be a lot of repetition, lots of the same people, lots more of the same. But in fact the three shows couldn’t have been more different. Three shows, three completely different vibes, atmospheres, and surprisingly attendees. I was expecting to see a lot of the same people at each ... read more ...

Stop The Presses: Rick Latona Auction Stopped After 33 Domains Due To Online Bidding Problems - The RickLatona.com action was stopped 33 domains into the auction after the online auction software crashed. The online system seem to crash just a couple of domain into the auction and never got working properly.

Our Picks From The RickLatona.com TRAFFIC Auction - Well its that time again. We went through the 250+ domain in the Live RickLatona.com TRAFFIC auction and selected what we think are the most interesting and potentially best buys from the auction. We notice there are quite a few ccTLD’s in this auction, which as my readers know is not my thing, so I haven’t selected any of these.  Having said that XXX.us is certainly an interesting domain. There are several .ca domains and investors should be aware that Canada still has a presence requirement ... read more ...
