I
will be away on vacation October 20-27 so won't
have an opportunity to post our usual daily item in the Lowdown
until I return next week. However I will try to drop a few
items in from the |
road if time allows. Since I
entered this business in 2002 I have never spent a full
week away unless it was to cover domain industry events.
After six years my wife thinks a personal vacation
is a bit overdue and I guess it would be hard to argue
that point with her. We will be traveling through the
Midwest and Northeast visiting family and friends. With
its crisp weather and gorgeous autumn leaves, fall has
always been my favorite time of year in the Northern U.S.
Though I love the year-round sunshine here in Florida,
autumn is the one season I miss after growing up in
Ohio. |

Before
heading out I wrapped up a couple of projects over
the weekend that I think you'll enjoy. As
you have undoubtedly heard by now, the T.R.A.F.F.I.C.
domain conference heads overseas |
|
for the first time November
18-20 when Fabulous.com
hosts the T.R.A.F.F.I.C.
Down Under conference on Australia's
famed Gold Coast. To get the inside scoop
on what attendees can expect from this event, I
hooked up with Fabulous.com COO Dan Warner
and the company’s Business Development |
Director Michael
Robertson who have led a team that has been
working non-stop on this show since it was
first announced in October of last year. Dan and
Michael offered some great insight into why taking
the show Down Under will produce a unique new
animal in the conference game. You can check out
our T.R.A.F.F.I.C. Down Under preview
article here. |

Also, as you know, we
published our review of last month’s T.R.A.F.F.I.C.
New York conference a couple of weeks
back, however we had a ton of great photos left
over from the event and rather than leave them
on the shelf, we just added a T.R.A.F.F.I.C. New
York Photo
Gallery to the article so we could
share them with you.
The photo at right is
a sneak preview from the Gallery. That is Jen
Sale and Michael Robertson (who took
part in the T.R.A.F.F.I.C. Down Under preview
interview I mentioned above). They were holding
court in Fabulous.com's New York booth
where Michael was obviously trying to make a point!
Check out the Photo Gallery and see if you or
someone you know was caught on camera! |
