To those that invested in .mobis (me included) take a look at how technology made .mobi completely obsolete ... notice how you can zoom at a fingers touch.

Alive and kicking for domainers that refuse to see the obvious or Mr.and Mrs. Public ?

I am sorry, but that doesn't even sound optimistic for a pro .mobi investor like yourself

Aren't you supposed to go out with the band playing and a totally positive attitude on a sinking ship

Perfect analogy ... while the Titanic was sinking the band kept playing ...
what the video shows is that .mobi has NO USE WHATSOEVER from a
technological point ... that is it has NO USE WHAT-SO-EVER .. N-O-N-E to improve the surfing experience on mobile devices which was the main point
of .mobi ... you can however make the argument that you can spend a TON
of money marketing your .mobi " premium " keyword ... but then again you
can do this with .biz, .info etc etc.

I never invested in .mobi's, mostly 'cause I'm a .com'er and secondly, I never saw the point. Unless mobil browsing were restricted to only the .mobi extenstion, which it is not. IMO the ony .mobi's that are worth while are single word generics, very short names or names that are very, very relative to the "mobil" industry.

iphone, full browser, wap will kill mobi extension....now that dosent mean mobi use will dry up....mobi use and browsing is huge.....just .mobi extension is dead....also,

i took my losses and moved forward, had a couple nice sales in mobi..

good luck everyone

As a domainer, .mobi has been friendly to me and profitable... i have no reason to give up on my investment.... and no reason to care what phone can do what....

the mobile market needs a online directory dedicated to mobile sites... and .mobi is the answer.

Rep added cosmicray

...I would see .mobi as more of small fishing boat then the Titanic though

Maybe one of the fishermen has a harmonica they could play, that they have tucked away next to their lunch box

Ps: Don't any .mobi "lovers" get too upset, this is my attempt at humor

I never said you can't make money with it ... money can be made with
ANYTHING including selling manure ... but as far as .mobi becoming mainstream
or " the .com of mobile " we can conclude it will NOT happen.

 

[trendicator]

seems that i was right to sell most of my 3-letter .mobis months ago

still have 6 left, just in case

maybe my "WapTube.com" is better than "Tube.mobi"

 

[Alan Glennon]

I look forward to decreasing domainer involvement as .mobi evolves.

Never say never, the corporate world is the decission makers... not me and you

.biz will never reach the power of .mobi - as far as I'm concerned... .mobi is a high ranked player in the domain industry.

I declared 2 years ago, that .com is the KING and .mobi is the QUEEN - together, they can dominate the world. A simple formula with a Powerful Punch!

I'm in the MONEY BOYS! No complaints... 10 years or 2 years.. i'm gaining $$$$$$$ :D

I admire your positive attitude toward your investments and beloved extenstion. However I must say that IMO, .com is KING, .net is QUEEN and .info is the PRINCESS who is soon to blossum. :lala: .Mobi might be a DUKE.. :hehe:

He wait next 5-10 year for it.
