    Hi!

    .ws or .mobi?

    What are the perspectives of ws and mobi extentions? Which one will have more value in future?

    .ws if you're gonna build a website. mobi if you can make a buck off the new hype.

    Thank you very much for clear and quick response!

    I've another question:

    Is it possible to compare .ws and .name?

    Thanks!

    Sure, some domainers make a few $k each month with great keyword .ws websites, and .name sucks no mattter what the heck you do with it. For future questions, .st works pretty much only for State, cc only for credit cards, and tv only for television.

    Re: .ws or .mobi?

    .mobi for sure but .ws isn't all bad if you have the right name.
    PM me if you use the BIN for a fast response.

    Re: .ws or .mobi?

    *.ws as "wireless" http://www.dnforum.com/f557/ws-crappy-not-crappy-ext-thread-168383.html

    *short two-character tld to type vs. four, until (and if we ever) see the 'default to mobi' button people have been suggesting

    .ws may yet become a great whale of a tld among whales and give mobi a run for his plankton. Thar she blows.
