NamesCon

Just a few days to go until attendees will begin arriving in Las Vegas for NamesCon! We are expecting somewhere around 1,200 conference attendees. There will be attendees from all facets of the domain name business.

This morning’s NamesCon 2016 sponsor spotlight interview is with the team from the .feedback Registry and Jay Westerdal, founder of .feedback. The team answered questions about .feedback domain names  and he shared some thoughts about the new gTLD domain names and NamesCon.
