In other conference news, the Domaining Europe online domain auction has less than 24 hours to go. The sale will be ending at 1pm (US Eastern time) Friday afternoon (May 26). Undeveloped.com is running the auction in conjunction with the conference that ran last week in Berlin. There was also a live charity auction at the conference itself with a different set of domains that were donated by 

attendees with all proceeds going to the Hope Children's Centre. For more information on this worthy organization you can email Nidoma.com Founder and Hope Children's Center patron Shaun Wilkinson at [email protected].

I also want to congratulate NamesCon on the successful staging of their first conference in India. The event in Mumbai was held last Friday (May 19) at the city's Grand Hyatt with a good turnout on hand to see an outstanding roster of speakers from both the global and Indian domain industries.

Regrettably, I was unable to attend the event. After Domaining Europe ended in Berlin May 16 I already had a previously planned trip through southern Germany and Austria that my wife and I were on through this past weekend. However, several others went directly from Berlin to Mumbai including Braden Pollock who served as a moderator for both shows. If you follow NamesCon on Facebook you can see the many photos and highlights they posted from the inaugural event in one of the world's most rapidly growing domain markets, including this one that captured Braden's fireside chat with one of India's most widely known domain investor/developers, Deepak Daftari (at right).
