The Show Must Go On – T.R.A.F.F.I.C. Milan sticks to its schedule. Ash clouds be damned

April 19th, 2010 Comments off
T.R.A.F.F.I.C. Milan will go on as planned. I plan on being there even if I have to take a boat. All morning I’ve been in contact with my friends in Europe and nobody has expressed dire concerns. Everyone I’ve spoken with expects air travel to be fully operational and normalcy restored in plenty of time for [...]

March 30th, 2010 Comments off
We have many ccTLD registries coming to T.R.A.F.F.I.C. Milan but one I’m particularly excited about is the .ru extension.

Maybe the worst domain I’ve ever let expire

November 2nd, 2009 Comments off
First, I swear I didn’t register this name myself. My disdain for .mobi names has been well documented. It was part of a large portfolio of names that a customer had defaulted on. When I saw it in the pending expiration list I litterally laughed out loud. A mobile site about Amish furniture? Priceless.
