Executive
Director but once he leaves his current job I'm afraid
we won't seeing as much of him as we have in the
past.
As
most of you know, Dark
Blue Sea is the parent company of Fabulous.com,
one of the most highly regarded customer-centric
companies in our industry. Many domainers have had the
pleasure of getting to know Richard over the years as he
ably represented Fabulous and DBS on the conference
circuit - and even more so when Fabulous hosted their
own unforgettable T.R.A.F.F.I.C.
conference last November on Australia's
Gold Coast, near their home base in Brisbane.
In
their dealings with the domain community Richard and his
team have consistently lived up to the company's most
recognizable brand name - Fabulous. Though his role will
change this summer we are hopeful that Moore will
continue to be available to share his broad knowledge of
the industry with all of us. |

Moore
Dark Blue Sea CEO |
Dark
Blue Sea has named the company's current CFO, Gregory
Platz, to fill the CEO position effective July 1.
Gregory has been with the company since it was founded
in 1999 so he obviously knows the firm inside out and we
wish him the very best in his new assignment leading
Dark Blue Sea.

A
couple of other notes to pass along today - the
preliminary agenda for this month's T.R.A.F.F.I.C.
Silicon Valley conference (April 27-30
at the Santa Clara Marriott) has just
been posted. You can get more
information from our show preview interview with
T.R.A.F.F.I.C. Co-Founder Rick Schwartz
that was published in our latest
newsletter. There
is also news about this month's GeoDomain
Expo in San Diego (April
23-25 at the Catamaran Resort).
Tomorrow (Friday April 3) is the last
day to take advantage of the special early
bird registration fee ($595). It |
jumps
$100 Saturday and will cost $400 more at the
door. I'm looking forward to covering both the
GeoDomain Expo and T.R.A.F.F.I.C. for you and
hope to meet many of you in person at one or
both of those events.
