Tim Berners-Lee offers a snapshot of where the web is going
(see below article link)

Domain names will continue to lead the search path through direct navigation.

With the continual struggles to enhance the webs capability in reading the minds of its searchers, domain names continue to provide the most effective search method.

I agree

I don't why anyone would think that could or would change? It's like saying phone numbers are the still the best way to call people? Huh, isn't this all very obvious?

agreed, Direct Navigation is very obvious to you and me, but with the typical 25-30% url type-in rates in mind with generic domains, the populous is slowly becoming aware of Direct Navigation.

The quicker the majority of the populous realize the benefits of Direct Navigation (as you and I are obviously aware), the more valuable generic domains become.

Direct Navigation is the internets most time effective method of searching, even though many generic domains are not in use at this time, just think about the near future, when the majority of generics are used as they should be, as their inherent vocabulary meaning. Every persons time is valuable, every person would like to use the most time effective method of searching the internet.

Yes, Direct Navigation will soon to be obvious to the majority of people, not just domainers, like you and me.
