now the crap registrations can really start flowing in!

with only 1 year regs we'll be seeing more SmokedChickenAndCheddarWithBaconSandwich.mobi's coming soon..

LOL

I thought Pred took all the submarine mobis?

LOL
I love you Stoc! :lol: You've been waiting for that one! LOL
Cheers

I think if anyone had any doubt that .mobi is nothing but a well exceuted marketing strategy without a real product behind it, now it should be clear to everyone..this is almost like a product on the home shopping network now...you can get not one, but two pieces of crap for the incredibly low price of what we will make you believe is a good deal for nothing..
..mobi pro: "but how come people spend so much money on them?"
answer: "People bought the Ford Pinto as well"

I suggest you reg some more mobis...and tell yourself you are a genius with a vision...I wonder what your parents say when they find the credit card bill....prepare to move out of their basement

This is good news! thank you for the info.
I'm sure allowing 1 year reg's is good news... it's bound to help publicize the .Mobi.Maybe in a few months they can do a 0.99 special....... :D

On a similar theme, i noticed today a LOT of TV ads for mobile broadband, i havnt seen these sort of ads until today on mainstream TV.Things are moving along nicely.We're still WAY behing China on tech though.

:cheers:

I kinda like the two year reg thing as I know mine are in the vault for a couple of years and safe from all the .mobi disbelievers who will eventually come out of the closet screaming, "PICK ME! PICK ME! I WANT IT!"

By the way, why is PRED and PREDATORY.mobi still available? :eek:

I still cant see the reasoning behing .mobi, since you can so easily redirect within any other extension to a subfolder of your site with a SIMPLE auto detect script to optimize the page from mobiles...

enough ranting...

I have regged very FEW .mobis, but since it is the 12th today and I dont see any of this 1 year deals going on anywhere, it looks like it might happen whenever each registrar feels like it.

no, its cheap.
well, its cheap regarding to other registrars.
my ENom ETP account is showing $17

hmmm. that price is for 2 years, so I guess Enom hasnt gone to the 1 year deal.
if it is cut in half, then yes, Monikers price would be relatively expensive.

They all had the opportunity to start today, but they are all doing when it suits them by the looks of it. :rolleyes:

Even my GoDaddy reseller account is taking one year .mobi regs. I am not endorsing them or plugging them (ain't that a friggin shame?).

I think someone better rattle some phones at moniker.

And to all the naysayers out there...say nay. There's nothing wrong with having a divesified portfolio. Just like the stock market or your fund portfolio. You can't put all your eggs in one basket.
