.Me proves to be very popular, auction reaches $218,000

About a week ago, there was an announcement that there would be an auction in NYC, called the T.R.A.F.F.I.C auction, auctioning off the rights to a few “.me” domains. Right now, most domains end in .com, .org., or .edu.

I didn’t think that having .me at the end of a URL would fetch so much money at an auction. However, there have been a lot of clever URL names incorporating .me. Take a look after the jump to see which domains sold for the highest at the auction.
