I was excited to hear that the first Domain Roundtable Conference turned out well, and that there will be more coming.

1,200 online participants;  300 live audience, what they call the "most viewers of any domain auction ever."  Despite what was clearly a pretty big success, Jay has lots of good ideas for making the next auction even better, including fewer domains, a better live experience, easier to get food & drink, better live chat, and more!  I love the energy and transparency!

First DomainTools Live Auction Results

Total sales were apparently $3,841,528.  Top sales included Invention.com ($500,000), Rebate.com & Rebates.com ($1,000,000), MakeMoneyOnline.com ($95,000), AZ.com ($500,000), Army.org ($99,000), ConsumersGuide.com ($66,750), Cab.com ($110,000), Copies.com ($90,000), FederalStudentLoans.com ($50,750), Event.com ($165,000).

Domain Name Journal reviews the conference.  Sahar at The Conceptualist reviews the Roundtable, too.  And Adam Strong (Domain Name News) makes some very interesting comments in the posting "domain roundtable scorecard."
