The Drilling Down on Local conference is around the corner.  It will be held from 30 April-2 May 08 in Seattle, Washington.  Geo domains will be a topic of discussion on day 2.  This is a great event to attend if you find time in your busy schedules.  As the internet continues to evolve, ”local” will become a mainstream term in the domain industry.  It is only a matter of time before local platform experts are placed on panels in all of the major domain conferences in the industry.

One of our own, Dan Pulcrano, will be sitting on a panel labeled “Leveraging Geodomains” during the Drill Down Conference.  I am sure Dan will do an outstanding job communicating the importance and power of geo domains to online media.  This is a great opportunity to explain geo domains, as he will have the attention of many industry professionals.   

Day 2   5:00 pm - 5:30 pm 
Leveraging Geodomains
The geodomain industry has opportunistically bought up every city name it could to bring “type in” traffic to advertisers. But major geodomain companies are now rethinking their options, and are building local franchises for the long haul. Dan Pulcrano of Boulevards, which has 67 U.S. and 30 international city guides, will discuss the opportunity and the efforts his company is making.  Dan Pulcrano, CEO and Executive Editor, Boulevards/Metro Newspapers
