Google Doesn’t Renew Google.de, Site Goes Down

Google Doesn’t Renew Google.de, Site Goes Down and a young german guy had registered the domain without knowing it.

Hi Folks - I was at the DLD Conference in munich http://dld-conference.com/ and today, Marissa Mayr VP of google said something about the .de domain in the morning panel session. The page was down from 1-3 am . a young german guy had registered the domain without knowing it. They called the guy and he agreed to give the domain back to google - but Marissa said nothing about the amount of money they’ve paid him or if they paid him at all. the conference was really great - regards from germany

Big boys like Google loose out sometimes also
