T.R.A.F.F.I.C. Vancouver: InterNetX is Platinum Sponsor again
» ‎ Domainers Magazine

REGENSBURG, Germany – This time around, the T.R.A.F.F.I.C. conference is setting up tent in the Canadian metropolis of Vancouver. Vancouver is also known as “Hollywood North” and has for some time now, been considered one of the most livable cities in the world. It’s also home to a number of extremely successful domain investors. At the fourth T.R.A.F.F.I.C. conference this year, from June 8 – 10, 2010, decision-makers in the domain industry can get information about changes and chances on the current domain market, innovative parking solutions as well as possibilities for domain development and expansion.

The event will be paying particular attention to the Canadian TLD .CA, as well as the brand-new TLD discovery .CO, which is presently being launched and is already causing worldwide interest amongst Internet players in the current Sunrise Phase. “As the only European registrar accredited by the .CO registry, .CO Internet S.A.S., we’re naturally going to be there when a central event like T.R.A.F.F.I.C. turns its attention towards the market opportunities of these promising .CO domains. The coming Landrush phase, kicking off on June 21, will strengthen the interest in .CO,” says Hakan Ali, Director of Sales and Marketing at InterNetX. “However, the focus on the Canadian TLD .CA is also a major point of attraction for us. The domain market in Canada is increasingly developing and holds enormous investment potential.”

Daniel Eisenhut, responsible for International Business Development at InterNetX, will be presenting innovations in the field of domain registration. From the perspective of an exclusive .CO registrar, Mr. Eisenhut will also be passing on valuable information about the TLD launch for .CO.

Apart from the usual T.R.A.F.F.I.C. events like presentations, discussion forums and speed networking sessions, the domain auctions (including .CA domains and hot premium gTLDs) will be stirring up a lot of interest and profit.

T.R.A.F.F.I.C. Vancouver is taking place at the Renaissance Vancouver Harbourside Hotel in Vancouver, Canada, from June 8 to 10, 2010.

LA Times Skewers .Mobi As “All But Worthless”
» ‎ Domain Name News

The Los Angeles Times just posted an article covering the demise of the .mobi extension. The story covers the hard losses felt by domain investors who bought in to the hype behind the mobile domain extension. Rick Schwartz is quoted throughout the article.

The Times may be a little off in throwing out quotes like “But now a site can detect that a user is on a mobile device and automatically display in a cellphone-friendly format.” The reality is that this detection has always been available and was one of the main points that people didn’t “believe” in the extension.

This is nothing really new but mainstream coverage of the facts that .mobi hasn’t seen those high dollar prices of the past isn’t foreign to most domain investors. Mike Zapolin summed it up at the end of the article that .mobi domain investors are “just really hoping that somebody is going to be a bigger sucker than them.” OUCH !

Editors Note : Apparently this is a re-print of a story previously ran on the Miami Herald, as Mike Berkens had mentioned previously.

e.CO Charity Auction Predictions
» ‎ Elliot's Blog
As you are probably well aware, e.CO is currently in auction at Sedo, with the proceeds being donated to a charity of the winning bidder’s choice. The auction concludes on Thursday afternoon at 4pm EST, with online bidding as well as simultaneous live auctions in New York, Chicago, and Vancouver. This aspect of the auction is certainly going to be very interesting.

With a little over one day to go, the e.CO auction has reached a high bid of $32,000, but I predict the result will end much higher. I think this could go well past $100,000 but if I was a betting person (which I am), my bet would be that it ends at $125,000.

I am curious to know what you think the final sales price will be. Please vote below:

Court Greenlights Sex.com Order
» ‎ Domain Name Wire
Order paves way for sale of Sex.com.

The Central California Bankruptcy Court has issued an order approving a settlement between the managers of Sex.com owner Escom, LLC. This means that Escom can go forward with entering into an agreement with domain broker Sedo to sell the domain name.

There was a slight hitch in the process as investor Nothin’ But Net (run by Mike “Zappy” Zapolin), which had been quiet in the early stages of the case, filed an objection. After filing the objection Nothin’ But Net worked with creditors DOM Partners and Washington Technology Associates to resolve their differences.

Escom will now operate as a debtor in possession pursuant to sections 1107 and 1108 of the Bankruptcy Code. Assuming the deal with Sedo goes through, you can expect marketing of the domain to begin shortly.

The [Dot]Brand Tribes - Part 3
» ‎ CircleID

In part two of The [Dot] Brand Tribes we argued that introducing new branded generic Top-Level Domains (gTLDs) would bring value to brand owners and have positive effects on customer recognition. In this last post we'll continue that theme and talk about how brand owners can come together to provide shared spaces using the banking industry as an example.

The digital age has provided both banks and consumers with new opportunities to create relationships and entanglements beyond the traditional high street branch. Money is now electronic. We save time by paying bills online, trading stocks, checking balances all from our computers or mobile devices. Banks save money on physical locations and create new products and innovative services that add to their bottom line. It is a win-win. But there is risk.

I'm not talking about the banking practices of certain institutions with our money, which I am no expert in. I'm talking about the risk faced online. Most commonly this risk is called "identity theft" which is enabled by a practice (amongst others) called "phishing".

Phishing is big business. The modern day equivalent of stealing your credit card from your pocket, it has become a worldwide financial concern. The Anti Phishing Working Group (APWG) in a study of attacks during the 1st half of 2009 stated that phishing "remains a dangerous criminal activity involving great losses of money and personal data". Domain names and the domain name system are intrinsically linked to phishing. The study suggests that phishing attacks in the 1st half of 2009 came from over 170 individual TLDs, with malicious registrations in 57 TLDs and the majority of those in just the 5 top TLDs. 3.6% of malicious registrations contained a brand or variation of a brand. Most concerning was that the majority of attacks came from hijacked domain names where the owner was almost always unaware of the activity.

The banking industry has come together over the past few years and made considerable strides to reduce the volume of phishing attacks in order to stem the loss of consumer confidence in online banking. Along with marketing and education, technology has helped. SSL Encryption has secured the flow of information. Tokens allow only the right people to gain access; passwords and CAPTCHA have limited hacking. Even browsers are now designed to flag suspicious sites. However criminals are innovative, technology is cheap and because of the potential ROI, are often well funded. So what are the next steps for financial institutions when it comes to protecting consumers and ultimately their ability to make money?

I believe that new gTLDs will be able to help banks. As previously discussed, a Dot Brand TLD for an institution such as HSBC (and for that matter all top brands) will promote the brand but it will also protect it. Combined with existing authentication technology and controls, the ownership of their own TLD registry will allow banks to control all interactions online between themselves and their customers. As discussed in previous posts it will take education, adoption and commitment. But in the long run it will be a win-win.

Think of the following slogan "If it's not a [dot] HSBC it's not [dot] Safe". Now consider the opportunities.

Product Domains – www.checking.hsbc
Location Domains – www.hongkong.hsbc
Marketing Domains – www.theworldslocalbank.hsbc

Your tribe needs the ultimate battlements and this gives you that, a moat, bows and arrows, and even a wizard. Maybe even think a little outside of the box and consider account number domain names. What if customers were given their own banking URL with their account number (e.g.www.45869302.hsbc)? This would directly navigate to a secure login for their account. Am I blowing your mind yet?

What about the idea of coming together for a common goal to fight identity theft. Remember we are only as strong as the sum of our parts. We've seen this work well in the .mobi extension. Global telecommunications companies coming together to back an innovative solution to mobile browsing. Together you can cultivate, share ideas and innovate. Bringing .bank for example to the domain space gives you the ability to control the security policies and innovations as a group. Here are some examples:

www.hsbc.bank
www.citi.bank

... you get the idea.

Now think "If it's not [dot] bank it's not [dot] safe". Having control allows you to implement the highest levels of security, create dedicated spaces and protect your tribes. Stringent rules and criteria will promote trust within customers. Of course the naysayers will no doubt shout that "criminals will find a way past this!" Maybe, but at least it will be on your playing field and remember if we don't innovate we die.

These will not suit all sectors but some are ideally suited to this. Remember that tribes that came together become empires. In the next series of posts we'll discuss some ideas for prospective TLD applicants to consider.

NameDrive to Auction 760 Three Letter .EU Domains Starting at 1 Euro
» ‎ Domain Name Wire
Three letter domains starting at just 1 Euro.

NameDrive’s NDX market is running an auction for 760 three letter .eu domain names starting tomorrow. Each domain starts at 1 euro. That’s like a buck twenty starting price, although it might be cheaper by tomorrow if the Euro keeps sliding. The auction will run for seven days.

In order to bid you’ll need to open a NameDrive account before the auction starts, and will also need to fill out a “Certified Trader Application” to be eligible.

Most of the domain names have letters such as z, q, and x in them. But at just one euro to start, these domains should sell. [Update: There is a 20 EUR reserve on each domain.]

NDX market is NameDrive’s online domain name aftermarket. According to the company it sells over $1 million worth of domain names a month.

TRAFFIC Kicks Off in Vancouver
» ‎ Domain Name Wire
A TRAFFIC conference in Vancouver, eh?

Yesterday afternoon I carpooled from Seattle to Vancouver for the TRAFFIC conference. As we crossed the border, the border agent was very stern.

Why are you entering Canada?

For a conference.

What kind of conference?

A domain name conference.

A what?

I thought we were about to get into one of “those conversations” where you try to explain the domain name industry. But we didn’t and were shortly on our way into the city.

Vancouver is a beautiful place and the Renaissance Vancouver Harbourside Hotel is an ideal location. It looks out on a truly spectacular view. Last night’s cocktail reception was held at the top of the hotel on one of those “rotating” floors. It let you soak in 360 degrees of Vancouver (see photos below).

It appears that about 150-175 people will make the show. Notably absent are Rick Schwartz and Howard Neu, but there’s a good contingent of first time faces (the Vancouver domaining community is out in force.)

Stay tuned for updates throughout the conference.

Fourth version of the draft Guidelines for the creation of new extensions
» ‎ Domisfera

The ICANN has released the fourth version of the draft guide for the application of a new extension (312 pages, news ). The guide is open, as usual, to public comment until 21 July. What does not change in this new version is that the applicant must have patience and money.

The patient should be twofold:

1) The Final Guide for the creation of a new extension has not yet been approved, and therefore the receiving process has not been opened. The first version of the Guide is dated 24 October 2008 and had 97 pages. The roadmap of ICANN has been modified. For example, when he published the second version of the Guide (112 pages), announced on May 8 that the period for receipt of applications would be opened during the first quarter of 2010.

Now, according to the schedule based on web seminar ( webinar ) that performed after Nairobi member of the ICANN Board Bruce Tonkin , the final guidance would be ready by December 2010. Between April and July 2011 could open the period for receipt of applications.

2) In the fourth version of the life cycle of an application faster for 8 months ( page 20 ). Depending on various factors, including the objections to the new extension, can last 19 months ( page 20 ) to its approval. It makes clear that for complex applications, the processing time can be much higher at 19 months.

This process will be available only to corporations, organizations and institutions ( p. 25 ) and shall pay to send the request $ 185,000 ( page 42 ). It can recover some of this money depending on which point the process gets the request before the applicant decides to withdraw. The ultimate recoverable once sent are $ 130,000. Also, depending on the complexity of processing an application you can charge additional fees ( page 44 ).

Reading Tea Leaves: China Statement on Internet Policy
» ‎ CircleID

The Information Office of the State Council of the People's Republic of China has issued a statement on "Internet Policy in China." Released Tuesday, the lengthy statement covers a range of topics from promoting internal development and use, to freedom of expression, protecting Internet security, and international cooperation.

A quick review reveals two interesting passages relevant to global Internet governance. First, concerning Internet security:

Effectively protecting Internet security is an important part of China' s Internet administration, and an indispensable requirement for protecting state security and the public interest. The Chinese government believes that the Internet is an important infrastructure facility for the nation. Within Chinese territory the Internet is under the jurisdiction of Chinese sovereignty. The Internet sovereignty of China should be respected and protected.

I imagine you would be hard pressed to find any government which disagrees with the sovereignty principle expressed above, despite the fact that the Internet's core infrastructure, applications (e.g., the DNS), and services operate transnationally. The position creates a fundamental tension (and threat to global Internet governance institutions) that governments everywhere are exacerbating by promoting securitization of the Internet.

Second, is language about international cooperation on critical Internet resources:

China holds that the role of the UN should be given full scope in international Internet administration. China supports the establishment of an authoritative and just international Internet administration organization under the UN system through democratic procedures on a worldwide scale. The fundamental resources of the Internet are vitally connected to the development and security of the Internet industry. China maintains that all countries have equal rights in participating in the administration of the fundamental international resources of the Internet, and a multilateral and transparent allocation system should be established on the basis of the current management mode, so as to allocate those resources in a rational way and to promote the balanced development of the global Internet industry.

The statement can simply be read that critical internet resources should be governed multilaterally within the paradigm of a nation-state based regime, namely the UN (although what agency is not specified). What is ambiguous, however, is the phrase "on the basis of the current management mode," which could be a reference to the existing Internet governance institutions. If so, we'll continue to see China tacitly support and engage the ICANN, IETF, and RIRs, but simultaneously push for their reform, particularly when it comes to their oversight and ensuring that processes lead to a "balanced development of the global Internet industry." We should expect China to extract something for this acquiescence, i.e., look for Internet governance institutions engaging in work which supports China's interests.

CoInternet Lends Twitter T.CO Domain As Official Link Shortener
» ‎ DotSauce Magazine

CoInternet is proving to have the most interactive, intriguing and lucrative domain extension launch to date.

TheDomains broke the news, Twitter has been accepted into the CoInternet .CO Founders program. An initiative to get developers involved in launching websites and businesses on quality .CO domains.
Twitter’s Official Link Shortener Coming Soon
Twitter’s new domain, T.CO will be used as the official link shortener to protect users from malicious sites. T.CO links will appear within all tweets and direct messages.

T.CO links will be monitored for malware. If malware is reported or detected then a T.CO link is flagged and a warning is shown to a user before visiting.

Users can still use existing link shortening services such as bit.ly, but those shortened links will be “wrapped” within an official T.CO link.

Twitter has other big plans for T.CO. The official announcement on Twitter’s blog mentions they will be putting click-through data to work for their Promoted Tweets program and within future commercial applications.

…routing links through this service will eventually contribute to the metrics behind our Promoted Tweets platform and provide an important quality signal for our Resonance algorithm—the way we determine if a Tweet is relevant and interesting to users. We are also looking to provide services that make use of this data, an example would be analytics within our eventual commercial accounts service.
E.CO Charity Auction Underway
Another lively .CO event is underway today. Bidding for the E.CO domain auction has reached over $30,000 on Sedo. All proceeds from the auction will be donated to the charity of the winners’ choosing.

The auction is now live and will conclude on Jun 10th at 4PM EST.

Bidders must be certified for this special auction. Follow the links on e.co or Sedo for details.
Claim Your Own .CO
The public launch for .CO domains is nearing. July 20th is the official date for general availability.

Right now, you can pre-register .CO domains at GoDaddy for $29.99/yr.

If multiple people pre-register the same .CO domain it will go to auction, but your initial fee will be refunded if you don’t get the domain you want.

The adoption of .CO by Twitter and the brilliant management and promotion of the extension by CoInternet is definitely a strong sign that quality .CO domains will prove valuable. What are your thoughts? Please leave a comment below.

.Co Gets Big .Coup with Twitter
» ‎ Domain Name Wire
Twitter signs on to .co.

.Co has pulled out all the stops in marketing its launch, and it got another big win today. Twitter announced that it will begin using t.co as its URL shortener, and eventually will wrap all URLs on the twitter service through t.co.

That doesn’t mean that all links will show up with the .co domain, however. The company explained that URLs will show up as t.co in SMS, but on the web interface or through various applications it might actually show as the long form URL rather than the shortened one. This will help create transparency into where your click will actually take you.

Regardless of how it is ultimately implemented, this will definitely help to further elevate the buzz around .co. It’s just another example of .Co Internet’s outside-the-box marketing strategy. New TLD applicants should take note.

Gregory “Bong” Loses 8 Hyphen .Info Domain in UDRP
» ‎ Domain Name Wire
What are these guys smoking?

I thought I’d seen it all, but I hadn’t until today: someone lost a .info domain name with eight hyphens in a UDRP. But it gets more entertaining. The domain name is:

how-to-roll-a-blunt-with-a-swisher-sweet.info

And the registered owner? One Gregory Bong. Yes, bong. Or at least according to the whois record.

I can understand why Swisher would want to get this domain name off the web. But this strategy could be expensive. If you go after a .info domain name with eight hyphens that cost a buck to register, you could end up coughing up several thousand dollars many times over to take down any long, crappy domain name like this.

The domain name was just registered earlier this year, and it doesn’t appear to have become a popular site by any means.

COme to the e.CO Party in NYC
» ‎ Elliot's Blog
As I mentioned here a couple of weeks ago, Sedo has teamed up with the .CO Registry and together they will be auctioning off the premium, one letter domain name e.CO, with the proceeds from this auction going to the charity of the winning bidder’s choice. The final live auction for this domain name will be held on June 10th at 4pm in New York City, at the conclusion of Internet Week.

To help celebrate the auction and encourage bidding, the .CO registry will be hosting a fun event, “COcktails & e.CO! LIVE Auction Finale” at the Soho Grand Hotel, Harbor Room in New York City (310 West Broadway) at 2pm on Thursday, June 10th. Of course, you can also bid for e.CO online.

If you live in the area and would like to attend, please register for the event online (you MUST register before). It’s free to attend, and I am sure there will be plenty of domain investors and other Internet entrepreneurs in the crowd. Have a drink, meet other people in the space, and introduce yourself to the representatives of the .CO Registry to ask any questions.
