It was released, check your email again. If you still don't have it you may want to contact Sean or Dan at &lt;a href="http://dnzoom.com" rel="nofollow"&gt;DNZoom&lt;/a&gt; and check with them.

		<description>So the "House" sets the sellers reserve, yet can also bid on a domain?  Experts can review a name, yet also place a bid?  No offense Sahar, but Bido is starting to look less like an auction, and more like a shark pool.

----answer----

The house does not set a reserve, it sets a guaranteed price we are comfortable covering. All auctions do not have reserve price. As far as Bido bidding, there are strict guidelines what Bido can and cannot do and those are disclosed in advance, have been disclosed long ago. For example, to avoid conflict of interest Bido discloses the guaranteed amount before auction starts and may place one bid during auction for the disclosed guaranteed amount. If someone outbid Bido then Bido cannot compete.

What we're trying to achieve isn't easy and has major financial risks on our side. We're doing our best to create the sort of liquid market we believe the industry lacks.

Cheers

		<description>Keep it going, Sahar.

My unsolicited advice.  Some of this ideas you may already be doing.

Stay responsive to those who's opinions you value.

I think you should put precise dates beside each name on your front page.
Perhaps have a 14-30 day  committed list. 
This has potential to build interest/momentum.

Allow those who have not signed up to watch the action anyway.
Allow those who have not signed up to be sent a daily email about what happened in yesterdays auction and what's coming up today/tomorrow.  This will likely cause more people to sign up over time.

Keep on truckin'.

----answer----

Thanks Josh. Yes, majority of these ideas are already implemented. Will look into more ideas as we put the site up and most definitely we will listen to feedback - once site is live, it is not the end, but the beginning.

Cheers.
