Rick asked me to shoot out an update today.  There are three things that I wanted to cover:

1) It is Day 3 of the Mount Kilimanjaro climb.  Since the group is taking the Machame route, they should be at Shira Camp now.  Tomorrow, they will pass through Lava Tower and hit Barranco Camp (3950m).  The full details of each day’s climb are at kili2010.com/climb-info.  If you haven’t picked a climber to sponsor, now is the time.  Proceeds all go to a great cause, The Water School.

2) On the auction front, we are looking for premium domain submissions in the eCommerce category.  Basically, if it is a product sold at your local mall, Wal-Mart, or The Home Depot, we would like to help you sell it.  We are looking for one or two word dot coms (English word), and we will look at ccTLDs if they are in appropriate language for the country.  Submit your names here.

3) The press release below went out earlier today.  If you are considering attending TRAFFIC Milan, now is the time to book your hotel room(s) and get the ticket(s) for the show.  If you are considering sponsorship, a booth, a tabletop, or any type of sponsorship, feel free to email me directly to discuss further.  Registration for TRAFFIC Milan here.

TRAFFIC Milan conference and hotel registration are now open.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:

Atlanta, Georgia USA – January 26, 2009 – Rick Latona Auctions is proud to bring the famous T.R.A.F.F.I.C. conference to Europe for the first time, T.R.A.F.F.I.C. ccTLDs, 2009 will be held in Amsterdam, The Netherlands from June 1 – June 5, 2009.

T.R.A.F.F.I.C. ccTLDs 2009 is dedicated entirely to the discussion of country code TLDs (ccTLDs).  We understand that there are a broad group of ccTLDs in the marketplace; however, in order to meet our objectives, we are primarily interested in discussions and submissions from the following ccTLDs:

This also means that we are also looking for speakers for each of the above mentioned ccTLDs.  If you or someone you know is uniquely qualified to speak on a topic or ccTLD, you may nominate them (or yourself) here.

T.R.A.F.F.I.C. ccTLDs 2009 will be June 1 – June 5, 2009 at the NH Grand Krasnapolsky in Amsterdam.  The Krasnapolsky is located across from the Royal Palace on Dam Square, which is one of the most recognized and important squares in Amsterdam.  After careful consideration, we have decided to limit the attendance to the first 400 registrants.  In order to guarantee that you or your company is represented, we highly recommend that you book this event as soon as possible.  Once our maximum number of admissions have been booked, the show will simply be sold out.
