Notable Developments[edit | edit source]
In November 2011, it was announced by Michael Berkens that his site, MostWantedDomains.com, had successfully brokered the sale of the domain, "meet.me" for a record $450,000. The domain was part of a portfolio that was acquired at an earlier T.R.A.F.F.I.C conference by Mr. Berkens, Rick Schwartz, and Ammar Kubba. Other domains in this portfolio include date.me, love.me, and marry.me. Michael Berkens noted that by selling the domain for a record amount in the .me namespace, he effectively raised the price of the rest of their joint-owned .me domains.[5]
