So what do you all predict is the next big thing in internet and domain names? Any ideas list them down. Let's see who has the best one. Would love to see some interesting comments.

I'm all for it. Could complicate things but that's how it is. I have been watching the 1 Yuan (about $0.03) .cn registration.
I like your thinking and insight on these matters. I agree with this assessment as it is a trend that I have seen for quite some time now. #3 is almost a given with the world two largest concentrations of population.alexsimon said:2 Development of sites. Simply parking sites will lose ground against web development. Thus I say MINISITES will be the keyword in the next few years.
3 .CN and .IN - these two cctld's will pick up ground in the next few years, as the Internet usage in these countries will continue to rapidly grow.
4. Involvement of bigger companies in the domain industry... I think that the domain industry will be played by some big companies that will manage thousands of domains rather than thousands of domainers.. but I see this happen in the far future. So consider thinking big when coming to domain names and traffic monetization.
I know your secret becuase I read your mind. I agree, it will eliminate the internet as we know it.alexsimon said:5 One little secret that I won't reveal...

I hope so cause renewing all those .co.in/.in names is starting to add up.3 .CN and .IN - these two cctld's will pick up ground in the next few years, as the Internet usage in these countries will continue to rapidly grow.
I see a future of intelligent mobile/portable devices utilizing full blown speech recognition and accessing massive amounts of information over wireless networks at speeds we can only dream about today. I personally can't wait for a phone that I can use without ever touching a keypad or screen. Don't laugh but I see much of this being available before the second year of the next decade. That doesn't mean the end of domains, ecommerce and other such things. Just a whole new use of communication technologies. Can anyone say Nano Circuits (missed the .com but have the .info).4.
