It's interesting to see DomainTools adding their opinion on .mobi. I think their comparison to .Tel is inaccurate because the two extentions will fulfill completely different roles.

interesting find.
hope the writer of 'article' is suitably embarrased.
he is completely wrong on what .mobi is for & what .tel will be for
hope he doesn't draw a wage for that garbage, LOL
what a joke

wow...your right that guy or girl is an idiot...they need to get some new writers for that site that actually know something about domaining...the best agrument was that .tel is just 3 letters and .mobi is 4 so .tel will win the battle...OMG

do you say mobilephone or telephone?

What a pathetic article

agreed. the writer , AND the piece! LOL
Maybe we should bombard them with emails to get their facts straight!
How dare they be innacurate about our beloved mobi! LOL
Biatches!

The .tel website has been like that and has had the same page for a while. Someone is living in the past

crap, crap, mega crap.

Soporanos, Whales? Somebody ate a stupid pill when they wrote this. Oh well incompetent writers are probably cheaper.

"But numbers don’t pull up websites."

NNNN.mobis do - but, at least for a while, there will be no numeric .tels.

But Hey, .tel will make some great hacks --
I claim KissAnd.tel.

.....might be all its' good for.

 

[namewaiter]

well the title is fitting... he is a tool

really his little blog reads like a hater, how can a site dedicated to everything domaining say that .mobi is no good, but .tel will be??? ummm yea!

 

[binaryman]

Will post it on the blog where that story originated as well.

This article gives new meaning to the phrase unintentionally funny!

I can think of only three theories that would explain this right now:

1. Their intern empowerment program has gone badly wrong; or

2. They've been hacked by a script-kiddie; or

3. The renaming of the site has hit their search engine rankings really badly, so they've finally decided to embrace link-bating in a troll-like kind of way.

Don't have the time right now but I wish somebody could get permission to re-publish it here in its full glory before they remove it from their site.
