.mobis aren't needed. If you need a keyword url, get one in one of the other tlds. A 2 letter tld is much better than a 4 letter tld and there are no limitations.

Agreed - they're not needed.

Shame on you Fearless! Hyping those 2 letter tlds - how many fools have just gone and spent their life saving on crap .ws names 'cos of you!?

You're all about the hype aren't ya....

I'd pick a .ws over a .mobi any day.

It's 2 characters less and no browser limitations.

Does that matter if it wont get any traffic anyway - that's what you keep banging on about, your dismal stats.

You'd be nuts to swap it for the .ws

Yeah sure on the premise I can find a much bigger sucker to by a .mobi thanks to guys like Vision. That window is quickly closing. If my objective is to keep the name to make revenue from the name, then I'll take the .ws.

If you want to make a few bucks here and there, throw up some lame "mini sites", then I guess and name in any extension will do the trick. .mobi, .cc, .sc, .bs, everything will be okay as long as you can get some SE traffic.

But if you're really serious about making something big, then it has to be something with natural type in traffic and name recognition and respect. For that, .mobi, .cc, .us, etc. just won't cut it.

Reselling, of course, is another different play altogether

$600. It sold on Sedo for almost $2,400. The ship is sinking.

So, you bought a name, that you believe sold for $2400, for $600, in an extension you don't believe in, parked it, and expected to make brewsters?

Gee....how long can someone be classified a noob? ;)

The mods should freeze all posts on the Mobi board so that in three years we can come back and see who said what, without edting.
