Friday Afternoon Domain News Bytes
A quick look at domain name news.
Next Thursday is Thanksgiving, which means some interesting things for web traffic. Shopping sites will see high traffic, news sites will see less as people stay home from work. Reglike will continue publishing next week, but I wanted to get a few thoughts and news items out there ahead of my turkey-induced slumber.
Joe Biden did it again. On The Daily Show this stretch, he referred to Recovery.gov as Recovery.com. I do the same thing all of the time. If I had a dollar for every time I wrote regarding a .org domain and accidentally type .com…
Next year’s domain conference schedule is overwhelming. I’ve been doing travel planning with my wife for next year, and I must say I’m overwhelmed. Lots of domain shows to attend. Lots of travel to book.
The IDNs are coming! Four days into the fast track process, ten IDN top level domains have been applied for in five different languages.
Don’t miss the Luxury Names auction. Ending two days ahead of Thanksgiving isn’t ideal, but that may mean good opportunities for buyers in the Luxury Names auction. I have three domains in the auction: MusicPhones.com, Newlyweds.net, and WeeklyPlanner.com. The latter is one of three domains at the auction to have received bids by now.
