       | NNNNN.mobi TXT Numbers Has anyone thought of registering 5 number mobi domains? I was looking at the competition on my bottle of coke and had the idea. Many companies have these txt and win competitions now, so is it a good idea to reg the numbers u come across if they are available? Im not sure if they would want them! Have not regged any myself but would like to know what u think about it? |

| I have thought about doing that, but as I've got some 6-number .com's which aren't doing very well at all, I decided against it. It would be great to see someone take the plunge. And also perhaps on numbers which aren't yet used as marketing for text services.

| 5 number 76278.mobi
????: NamePros.com http://www.namepros.com/dot-mobi/247416-nnnnn-mobi-txt-numbers.html Have had mixed comments, but may try to develop as a 'smart' device portal just to try out mobi development. If it is a text or phone number, someone may be interested, but numbers have no TM issues so they should make me an offer. (smartSMS uses 76278 for texting i.e. text 'smart' (76278) with answer)

| IMO Any number .mobi play is the current (which will soon be the past) way to think about mobile internet. The future HAS to be voice activated character entry. Also, how do you market NNNNN.mobi? I don't see much resale value. Maybe it it is developed but then again, you have to get people to that site.

| I decided not to get any in the end. Think they are too risky imo. GL to whoever purchased! I think simple numbers like 12345 will do best. Easy to remember, text no 12345, and mobile website, maybe!

| When these numbers are associated with words, there's really isn't a need to memorize the numbers. But whatever, you can skip on these names, ill take them. zip codes are a good idea too, depending on the zip code...i regged 10005 .mobi, the zip code of wall street. I think someone else here got the zip codes of some popular universities. |
