Here's what's up, what's down, and what's going on in my record-breaking world.
I wanted to personally wish all my supporters and visitors an amazing 2006, it's going to absolutely rock, I can already feel it! I hope everyone partied hard on New Year's Eve, that's what life is all about. The fireworks here in Punta del Este, which means "East Tip" by the way, were as amazing as the sunsets. For those of you who don't know, this place is fast becoming the Saint Tropez of South-America, enjoying the presence of people like Puff Daddy and Valentino this summer (don't forget, it's summer down here in the southern hemisphere!). I know I promised pictures of this place, so I've included a few below, check them out:

Coffee anyone?
I want a boat. No, seriously, I do.

I would have updated my blog sooner, but I was having problems with the Internet here in Uruguay which is somewhat unstable, so please bear with me. Fear not, however, as I have been hard at work on the site. I've announced the December Monthly Prize winners, so check out the Support the Feat page to see if you're a winner! I've had to replace the Donations Award with the soon-to-be-launched Merchandise Award because offering financial compensation for any kind of donation is a big PayPal no-no. I'm still accepting donations, I just can't offer any financial award in return (don't worry, I'm still figuring out what other incentives I can offer). I need as many donations as I can get, though, to be able to advertise my domain in extreme (think "expensive") ways...like that plane idea I mentioned last week...I still haven't found how to advertise on there (I can't exactly yell out and ask the pilot) but I have a feeling it's going to be expensive since the local Casino keeps advertising there. I need to advertise this domain heavily wherever I am to give it the worldwide pre-publicity it needs to break the record, so help make it happen!
Also, don't forget about the Graphic Design contest. The deadline is January 15, so make sure you submit your entries before then. I want to thank everyone getting involved, this whole contest is going to be a lot of fun. Oh, and before I forget, I have a new Sound Engineer! That's right, soon your visits to this domain will enjoy an exceptional auditory experience thanks to 808talk.com's very own Jim "BigDaddy" Plummer who had the idea. Thank's Jim! This reminds me, I've allocated more money for miscellaneous help since I had to cancel the donation prizes, so if you have an idea about how to make this site better, let me know and win some cash!
In the meantime, if you have any suggestions about how I can advertise my record-breaking domain on the beach, drop me a line, I'd love to give it a shot. As always, keep supporting the feat, I'm surer now more than ever that TheRecordBreakingDomain.com is going to soon become the Most Expensive Internet Domain Name in History!
