.mobi rocks it really is the future of the mobile web and you lazy potatoes are talking about how bad it is when you have to enter an extra letter what if if .com was not .com but rather than .ahole you would still type it why should i type blogherald.com when i can type bh.com you should change your domain because its more than 3 words and it wont succeed

YES.. listen to this guy. Do not buy any .mobi names.. ever. Do not waste your time with that mess.. who wants to type an extra letter in for a domain name extension? I think your time is more valuable than to waste it on that extra key stroke.

Besides.. That will leave me more to register! Please leave me to my mobi world and go on about your .com business.

I think I am done explaining the basics of .mobi to people who want to swim against the current. Use it or don’t. The more people who follow your uninformed lead, the more those of us who are developing the mobile web will succeed.

Before I close.. try hard to pull your head out of the 90′s. We are all moving forward while you eat our dust!

A mobi for $24? Only someone very ignorant would quote or pay that reg fee for a mobi today.

I’m glad you see the foolishness in .mobi, please go tell all these other folks to stop being fools.

google.mobi
yahoo.mobi
msn.mobi
bmw.mobi
ferrari.mobi
foxnews.mobi
espn.mobi
disney.mobi
hsm2.mobi
bofa.mobi

I’d give you many, many more but I highly doubt you could handle it.

You Rock!

Yes, four letter words suck. But 5 letters, like Thord don’t. Is that after the Norse god Thor? Just wondered. Thor had this huge hammer and got to wield that sucker like no one else.

Speaking of suckers, who would want to blog on a mobile device? I mean, really, who would want to spend all that time, trouble and effort scrolling to non-sense like BlogHerald and having to look at countless ads that mean nothing to nobody but help pay the author his hosting fees. My god Thord, my cell phone or PDA battery would run down its juices just trying to scroll through a site like this or any other bloggish hell. Kind of liked “bogged down in a blog” mentality.

I mean, I would want to have to look at at I don’t want to look at, or read comments that I care nothing about, and read some nonsense by some author that think his keyboard is the hammer of the gods and has the power to change the universe and protect the good who worship the dot com and destroy the evil doers who pay homage to the dot mobi.

You could not be 100% more correct in this case.

So please don’t take your site mobile.

.mobi is stupid?

Wow, well thought out argument – tell me, who do you admire most, Beavis or Butthead…?

So it’s 4 letters, .co.uk is more keystrokes and that’s the 2nd most popular cctld in the world. And the cost, $24 – if you think they cost that much I don’t believe you’re qualified to dispense domain advice.

“…You can get a .com for $6/year, or whatever, but a .mobi can cost $24/year..”

Try google…7,99 registration fee for a .mobi without a problem. 2 Whole dollar more than a .com. Wow…..
And for somebody from sweden that’s a laugh with the current dollar rate.

Get your facts right..
