Rick Latona Says .Mobi Is A Wasted Investment
I was reading Rick`s blog, and he says that .mobi is a bad investment...

Quote:
Rick Latona I think the entire extension is ridiculous.
funny I always thought the same... I do not own any .mobi`s in my domain portfolio btw

Do Not Try to Sell Me Your .Mobi Names

and is it really "real" internet estate when Property.mobi goes for $26,000?

Maybe Rick is wrong....

the thing is that i see is if you use a mobile sponsor you can still use .com so that will always be the most popular, but i also think a great domain name will speak for it self, so i will buy up to 5 and already checked on them and they are available.

I haven't developed my dot mobi sites as I can't find a designer who can do a site. When I do, the sites will go up

That's good if I want to promote them, but I want to promote my own paysites and sites on my own domains.

cool, but you can use your own domains. i forget you have a bunch of your own pay sites. Hope you find a developer quick as this seems to be the next big thing for the North American market. or at least that is what i have been told.

Maybe you've already done so viper but just looking at existing sites may give you some ideas. Just start down the list of major sites except use .MOBI instead of .COM

.MOBI showcase sites

Checking some of their underlying code may be of some help.

BusinessWeek
http://www.godaddy.mobi
Amazon
Las Vegas DJs
HD Movies
GagaToon comics - uses floating <div>
Comedy Radio .mobi
Youth Sports - Mobile Devices

recommended reading : Home | dev.mobi

Good Luck!

My pleasure Pam.

To see the best sites you need to be viewing them on a handheld.
If you can view the .MOBI site on your desktop, even if it's a great .MOBI layout, they're failing in regards to browser detection. Unless they've decided to ignore desktop headers.

I think the key development ingredient is server-side browser detection.

Remember "The Graduate" (1967)?
"I have one word for you : PLASTICS!"

Well, I have one word for you Pam, "browser detection" !
Don't leave home without it.

Considering how many .com's that actually are good are still availible at reg fee or for resell under $100 I don't see the vast majority of mobi names beeing valluable yet.
IF .mobi would be embraced as a sort of standard extension for pages suitable for cell's and pda's then things might change big time. But right now I see it somewhere around .org
