Danton Mendell Joins ICANNwiki in new Key Role

October 1st, 2006

Danton (Dan) Mendell of ICANNwiki and Neutral Space, Inc.

Well, my good friend Ray King of AboutUs and past member of the SnapNames team has been pulling my chain for quite a while to come over full time and work on ICANNWiki. He wanted to spend more time with AboutUs while dancing around the Wiki and ICANN community. Neutral Space is the entity that will House ICANNWiki and a couple other projects I have in mind. Its mission is to more thoroughly explore Web 2.0 collaborative activities and of course promote the wiki space and it’s benefits. I’d like to tell you more, but that could someday be the subject of another story all its own.

Well, after a lot of meetings and quite a bit of refreshments, fighting off Ray’s 2 yappy dogs from nipping at my legs, I’ve decided to take the plunge and run with it. So I just left my day job as CEO of a technology marketing support company, and as such, I guess I’m committed now to the ICANNwiki space. I’m looking forward to immersing myself in the business of all things ICANN and meeting all those caricature faced people in Brazil this December.

I’m going to need a lot of your support getting up to speed with what ICANNWiki in order to figure out what really needs to be done, in what order, and where we need to take ICANNWiki so it can keep functioning successfully as a center of with the ICANN community. I would really appreciate it if any of you out there have any ideas or opinions, please contact me through the wiki or use:
