Domainfest 2010 begins

by kierenmccarthy on January 26, 2010

I’m off to Domainfest 2010 in Santa Monica this morning, hampered slightly by a dreadful cold.

Should be interesting – this morning they are experimenting with almost a TV format and having people pitch new product and service ideas for increasing website traffic and revenue to a panel of experts who will tell them what they think.

And this afternoon a discussion about the big beast – new Internet extensions of generic top-level domains – and what they might mean. It’s titled: “New gTLDs: Bonanza or Bust?”

Then there’s a domain auction that I can’t decide whether to go to or not. May need to come back home and get some rest.

Here’s what happened at last year’s Domainfest in Hollywood.
