Special Ends Today, WhyPark Gives Auction Details — Mardi Gras

Here are a couple news notes from Domainer Mardi Gras and WhyPark.

Domainer Mardi Gras special ends today: Domainer Mardi Gras is giving away a 500 GB external hard drive to anyone who signs up to attend by midnight tonight. Registration rates are as low as $595 if you also stay at the conference hotel. This is the lowest fee you’ll ever see for attending an industry-wide domain conference. It’s a lot of fun, too. I recommend taking advantage of this offer if you’re sitting on the fence regarding attending Domainer Mardi Gras 2010.

WhyPark discloses auction details: WhyPark is teaming up with Rick Latona Auctions to test out the latter’s Latonas.com auction platform for WhyPark’s upcoming charity domain name auction. Not only is the auction for a good cause, but I’m excited to see what Latona has developed. His firm has used Proxibid.com for its previous auctions, but the system has serious limitations.

To learn more regarding the auction, listen to the DNW Radio interview with WhyPark founder Craig Rowe.
