Oversee.net announces party plans for DFG 2010.

Earlier today Oversee.net announced that it will hold its finale party for DOMAINfest Global in January at the Playboy Mansion for the second year in a row. The event will benefit enny McCarthy’s Generation Rescue Foundation. This year’s mansion party has been talked about all year, so it’s sure to be a hit again. I enjoyed the party at Universal Studios, too, so hopefully they can match that experience.

As a frequent reader of affiliate blogs, I noticed that a lot of affiliate companies are holding charity parties at the Playboy Mansion throughout the year. Sure seems like the Playboy Mansion is whoring itself out a lot these days. (Sorry, couldn’t help it.)

DOMAINfest Global tickets are $1095 through December 24. It’s a great value for what has become the biggest show in the domain name industry. Last year more than 600 people attended the event. This year’s event is moving to a new venue, the five star Fairmont Miramar Hotel & Bungalows.

  • You Say See-Dough, I Say Say-Dough

    One of the questions I often hear about Sedo is how it is pronounced. I’ve always said See-Dough.

    So when I was at the SedoPro conference in Key West earlier this month, I was delighted to hear Sedo CEO Tim Schumaker pronounce the company as see-dough as well. Case closed.

    But then in a session the next day Sedo Chief Operating Officer & General Counsel Jeremiah Johnston kept referring to the company as “Say-Dough”.

    Someone in the audience asked: which is it, see or say? Well, the folks at Sedo can’t decide.

    Last week I caught up with Johnston and asked him what the story behind the pronunciation is. He said the origin of the say-dough pronunciation is that the ’s’ is pronounced more like a ‘z’ in Germany. So it was the company’s thinking that when Sedo opened up U.S. operations it would be called Say-Dough U.S. But then the company noticed people calling it see-dough in the states.

    Of course, that makes it hard to understand why a German like Schumaker pronounces it see-dough. Johnston said that’s probably because he spent so much time in the U.S. with the company.

    Bottom line: you can pronounce it either way. I’m sticking with see-dough.
