**Did you know? NOKIA has launched 5 dotMobi sites on the Mobile Web in 2007**

[Vision]

I originally posted this at another place, and I received PMs from several people amazed/happy that NOKIA had launched 5 mobile websites...

Thus, my post here for consolidation purposes

NONE of the below NOKIA .mobi sites redirect from a web-enabled phone.

Here are Nokia's .mobi sites, not hype, just cold hard facts....

1.) Nokia.mobi

2.) forumnokia.mobi/

3.) mosh.nokia.mobi/

4.) NokiaforBusiness.mobi - By the way..this dotMobi site arrives preloaded as the default in several NOKIA phones in Europe.

5.) s60.mobi

Don't listen to me or the Mobiphobic Mob.

Do your own homework about .mobi ...

Research, make phone calls, ask questions, dig, listen, send emails...

Knowledge is power...there is an abundance of advancements with respect to the dotMobi namespace...some things presently seen, others hidden from plainview, and in my opinion, much more we will see as time unfolds....

The market is speaking. Some don't want to listen.

Stay tuned...

Thanks Vision. http://www.addemoticons.com/gif/a/addemoticons726.gif

I did not know they had 5.

Hell, most of these folks didn't even know they had one.

Shame, shame. http://www.addemoticons.com/emoticon...icons01515.gif

it would help for some to take your arguments and posts more seriously without all the images and giant size fonts and colors.


....no more hype is needed

....no more hype is needed

It was hype in the first six months - now it's nothing more than forum spam. Imagine all the threads if everyone posted a thread for every new website on other tlds?

Keep it on one thread - there is no need for a new thread for every single mobi website. There really isn't.

[sashas]

come on, unless newbies and suckers like Alvaro see 600+ threads on DNF for .mobi, how will they buy .mobi names for overly inflated prices?

exactly .. the hokus pokus is working!

don't really care how many threads, as that is their priviledge and the reason why this section was created.


just saying that, default font conveys the same message


sometimes it's cool, but it can portray immaturity when repeated consistently, and this can transfer across the forum into business deals...or the lack thereof

imo...

Yeah Puranjay, I guess, the Marketing Vice Presidents of all these BIG brands are suckers for eating up the so-called hype....

Hey Vision
I saw a TV ad (very slickly produced) for SouthAfrica.info

Does that mean that Music.info is now worth a million bucks?

Hey Sashas,

.info was launched in 2001 (6 years old)

.mobi was launched in late 2006. (15 months old)

Sashas, show me all the BIG corporate endusers, not a beautiful small country, that have adopted & marketed the .info extension during the last 6 years, and then we can talk...

Michael

[sashas]

lol Michael. My .info comment was meant to be sarcastic.

I read a very interesting analogy about .mobi: .mobi is like red bull, .com is like coke, .net like dr. pepper, .org like iced tea..I'm sure you get what I mean...

....no more hype is needed

There is not a thing that can be said or done for many to take this extension seriously.

So why not have some fun.

It's great for the DNF community spirit and rankings.

Plus, each time someone adds a comment against it just keeps the thread alive.

Seems like the logical thing would be to not comment and let the thread die.

But, who's talking logic when we're talking .mobi.
