| 2. Is it short enough to type on a 10/12 button phone? Hyphens are not
fun to type on a regular keyboard. Many cell phones take several steps
to find non-alphanumeric characters. I'd avoid long or hyphentated
names unless you expect them being found in a mobile search engine. How
many actual keystrokes does it take on a 10/12 key phone. Just typing
".mobi" until it defaults in software is 10 keystrokes (1,6,666,22,444) (if
they'd picked .WAP as the TLD it would only have been 3 keystrokes)
Good point but I don't think that voice commands are very far off for cell phones then the triple tap typing will no longer be an issue.
Also, I would imagine that bookmarking and/or tagging will come to mobile phones too that will help .mobi. |
