Next Trend ?

[mrcurly]

Moving on from the 3D, Cloud , NFC, Marijuana etc....trends, what do people think will be the next big money maker for the domainer?

I have a few Big Data domains but I like my hand in several dishes so if anyone would like to share their thoughts I'm sure a lot of domainers would appreciate any insights to what's gonna be hot or not.

Cheers

Maybe someday in near future:

I'm pretty cautious about investing in keywords domains related to "free" products and resources.

as far as i have understood it: moocs consist of both free and fee-paying courses. it describes a cheap way of making courses available through digital distribution. thus they are able to make the courses cheaper and so they can appeal to very large number of people.

Have you guys seen this zuckerberg telepathy news the past few days? Probably 10-15 years off, surprised hes even talking about it already. Should be in our lifetimes though (Im assuming after "domain names" have run their course)...

Both of them got a few inquiries but no firm offers to date. I regged one more MOOCPHD which actually has some search volume. I've a BBQ this weekend with a friend who is heavily involved in the whole e-learning sphere. I'll be picking his brains for what's on the horizon and I'll report back anything interesting.

DevMOOC

I could be wrong, but it seems like the majority of companies offering online courses are mostly geared for the development community. When I saw that DevMOOC dot com was available I thought it was an error, because "dev" is the name of the industry. Tried the search again to see if it was a hiccup and then jumped on the MOOC bandwagon the second I confirmed it was in fact available lol...

Apparently PCBs and printed batteries have been around for years now. These guys just figured out a way to incorporate it into the 3D printing process to create complete products. If proven efficient, this could someday threaten the jobs of those employed in the electronics manufacturing industry. I regged PrintedTechnologies(.)com about a month ago.

 

[namezest]

Yeah things like that make you realize we rely too heavily on technology all the sci-fi ideas are becoming reality now. The only way that will go is like the scene in the movie, "The Fifth Element" where the dna ended up being knitted into a living body in a 3d layered printing fashion. Scary!

Yup...the singularity is coming

Lol @HE went running.
Maybe he is an investor and not enduser?
I have about 4 solid ones but no offers yet.

 

[gilescoley]

He doesnt own any other names

MOOCS are out - The Rise of MOOIs

http://www.forbes.com/sites/darden/...-and-the-next-revolution-in-online-education/

Massively open online courses (MOOCs), heralded by Silicon Valley visionaries and higher education critics alike as the great disruptor of the university, are coming under increased criticism for their failure to provide the powerful learning outcomes that their proponents predicted.

If it is correct that the success of online learning is less dependent on the direct engagement of the instructor with students than it is that a community of learners engaging one another, Massively Open Online Internships (MOOIs) could be the next evolution of online learning. Few learners have easy access to meaningful opportunities to apply acquired skill sets in real world settings especially in a team and working directly with a client. MOOIs have the potential to create vibrant learning environments for teams of globally distributed individuals serving as project leaders, mentors, and team members.
