An idea I had is to schedule an annual meeting for the members of the .mobi forum, when .mobi starts becoming more popular.

It would give those of us who go a chance to meet each other in person, and to discuss the ext.

What do you guys think about doing this? Maybe we could have our first one in '08 if everything goes right.

Maybe NYC or something like that, an easy place for all to get to.

Give me some thoughts on this please, I would love to meet some of you some day!

P.S. - May also be a good business trip write off?

Could be big.

Besides inviting everyone here, invite some big companies to show off their .mobi websites, invite .mobi developers to advertise their services, maybe get a corporate sponsor or two for the event. Phone companies might be interested.

If it's in the US, I vote for Chicago. Easy for East Coasters to get to, and easier than New York for West Coaster to get to, plus hotel rates are more reasonable.

I would try to go even though I'm not into .mobi, but just to be involved in a namepros meeting.

If I might make a suggestion, you may wish to set up a website, see how many commitments you get, and then determine appropriate resources to host the event. You might also consider several events instead of one large. You could spread them around key international and or business transportation centers. Maybe one in London, one Sidney, and one in a major city in North America. Just a thought for you. :)

It will be best, to have events at China, Hong Kong and Singapore. I will attend it for sure.

Sounds like an excellent idea. I would be in for sure.

As far as the location goes -- perhaps someplace a little further...south? Y'know, avoid the cold? Miami, Florida, perhaps? ;) Ehh, I guess it doesn't really matter though, I'm up for wherever.

Yup, a mobi conference has been discussed before. From a historical perspective I think there are only two contenders for the location of the first conference: Helsinki or Dublin.

People will not fly all over the globe for just one meeting like this. If you want to make it succesfull you should try to latch on to something existing. A good one might be one of the Traffic conferences. That way you have a chance to involve some of the big players (like me :) )

Yep, I agree with that as well. Connecting to an existing event would help. I frequent these events below so you could even consider them as well:

NetWorld+Interop - Tech & Communications Trade Show
CES - Consumer Electronics Show
Wireless & Mobile Expo and Conference
CTIA Wireless
WiMAX World
DefCon - Internet Security Conference
Black Hat - Internet Security Conference

Although a good number of individuals in this forum buy and sell domains so a meeting related to this type of activity would also be a good way to get started. The T.R.A.F.F.I.C conferences are geared toward this type of activity. I am not focused on buying and selling of domains so I would not attend such a meeting.

Knowing how many people who would be willing to make a commitment to attend would be a big help for anyone considering to organize such a gathering. That is probably where you would need to start.

I do like the suggestion hanogl. Thanks. :)

I don't agree with latching onto Traffic conferences etc, I think it should be a private thing for NP'ers only a small event this is about us meeting each other and having a laugh not a commerical event (Unless i'm wrong?? But thats the drift i got from the original post!!) And besides if i went all the way to a traffic event i'd have to get in to see what the fuss is about which would incur a $2000 ticket to get in!! I'm not that rich!! LOL!

I like it. Good change of pace that would allow members to insult .mobi investors in person rather than on the boards. :lol:
