Afternic has been working on its next incarnation for over a year now.
The GoDaddy-owned marketplace for second hand domains is busy as ever, but its social media accounts, including Twitter, have been quite dead.
For example, on Twitter, @Afternic made 8 posts total in the five years spanning 2014-2019 and then disappeared. No-one was manning the spot, apparently, but this is changing fast.
Afternic is now pumping out re-tweets and more, as someone of importance is tweeting from the account. It could be Mike Cyger, according to some, but we don’t know for sure; three years of silence is a long time and it’s finally over! 😀
One thing is certain: Afternic listened to the constant “whining” by Jamie Zoch of dotWeekly, who chipped in on the subject:
I guess my constant bitching to them to stop ignoring the people that love them is finally paying off. Smart choice to engage with the community.

Well-said, Jamie, and congratulations on Afternic for listening to the community of domain investors! 😀
