Hi pjam1110...
I think what people are missing and not talking about much are 3d computers and monitors.
Once this gets further along the web will change direction. Companies and developers will build 3d content for the web and attract buyers and customers to their sites. This is the key for these domains to take off. It is not just the TV's and movies.
The issue is there have been people to buy 3d domains and think they will quick flip them in a few months and make a killing. This industry is still speculative but has great potential. Holding on to your names is the answer with this niche.
3D has a nice future but people that have invested need to be patient. Another point to make is, this industry hinges on the glasses free 3d which is a few years away. But when that hits, I do feel this industry will take off because that is the only burden I see with 3D right now.


Very Nice post...IMHO.

I was late to "3D"...So for better or for worse...I have been kinda working off parts your post above.

I will make a post in a few days....

That I do not think many have thought of much yet....but it was /is what I see as being a big "upside Niche" in the 3D space.

It will be "Just my two cents worth only"...I hope it is worth much more than that, because I have already investedmuch more than this...LOL

I sure hope it's not worth less than two cents....LOL

Everyone in this thread will end up benefiting...as many domains will still be available.....that is if I make any kind of sense.

But beware...I do not make sense sometimes/a lot....depends who you ask...lol

Like I said: I was late to "3d domains"... so I had to try and find a couple other angles..

Like everything else... 'Only Time Will Tell'.



Best,
Dan

I can share I received a nice 5 figure offer on my best 3d name but will roll the dice a while and see how it pans out.

Yes the name was 3DLaptop.com :)

TheLegendaryJP..

very nice indeed...very happy for you.

IMHO... you are making the "right move".... I am sure others would disagree, but if you got it for "Reg' price...and are not hurting for the money.

Sometimes..... you HAVE TO..."just roll the dice!

"Rock On!

Here is to... $$$$$$ figures, just a little ways down the road.... you just might "roll a 7 or 11"....LOL

Best to you with this domain.

Peace!
Dan

If you think this 3D is "going away" or is going to add up to nothing much...

Major company's and People are already "betting' Billions of $$$... that your not quite right in your assessment of the 3D industry going forward.

IMHO...

I would do a "Double Think"
Whether 3D takes off and lasts as a trend/technology is not the point really. Only the really good 3D domains (that is, not many) will be valuable.
As for the rest, it's no different than any other niche, crap remains crap. I have not seen outstanding handregs because the best names were taken long ago.

Yep, the same is true with any new extension or trend as well. No matter how popular 3D gets it will not elevate low quality domains.
There are an endless supply of low quality domains, and a limited supply of high quality domains.

katherine & bmugford

I agree 1000% with both your comments...

I have and do own "crap"...domains, good domain names "super crappy extensions (almost every domainer does, if not now..sometime during the 'domain learning cure'.

BUT,

I just think you may be miss judging the the enormity of what this industry is going to become....

Like I said before... I have never seen anything in "3D"

But as i stated...people a lot smarter than me are betting muti billions on this industry...and I think they will take this into places...we have not even thought of yet.

Crap is Crap.... I know this as well as anyone on this board... I am just saying that there are and will be for a while some very very good 3d domains out there still unregistered....because NO one knows all the different areas of the media, industry, homes, business etc... that this is going to effect.

Thanks for the post(s)... i always need "counterpoints' to my post.(s)

God knows I have been very wrong on many domains and the growth of some industries and niche markets in the past etc...LOL ( but really not funny)

Best,
Dan

Very nice JP. Glad I grabbed the .ca's for laptops and computers.

When looking at investing in 3D names ( like any niche ) you should always try to buy the most popualr applications for that niche. When it comes to 3D we think of tv, movies, laptop(s), computers in general, games, popular sports such as baseball, football, golf etc.

Beyond this if .com is out of reach look at other top extension with those niches in .org etc. that have proven value.

Nice grabs, yes its almost sure fire when you own a top ten application, only a matter of time.

Hi draggar,


Would it be possible to now put up a "3D sales forum only"....seems like a good iidea

Its not like Dnforum does not have the time or space....

I think most members would enjoy it very much.

Peace!
Dan

Personally I don't see the need for it but I did ping the post so the other mod / admins can chime in if needed. We don't really have any subforums or specific types of domains other than shot domains and geo domains.

As for the topic, I did find one today, oddly, the .com, .net, and .info were taken but the .org was not. I'm sure you'll need one of these to be able to use your 3D monitor to it's fullest potential.

Also, 3D w/o glasses - so are we talking holographic images?

The more I read on 3d without glasses the more it seems hard to apply. For example to accomplish 3d without glasses it involves several monitors at various angles and even that only works for one person at a time facing straight on.

Proper 3D without glasses is a LONG way off. Many of the people who think it is going to be easy don't understand the science and optics behind it.

I have talked to engineers who deal in this type of stuff and there are major hurdles to tackle, one you mentioned is the field of vision.

3D is not designed to be an everyday thing. It is designed to be a once in awhile type of thing. Prolonged 3D usage can lead to major eye issues, and other health risks as well.

I remember back in the early 1990's there wa s a 3D arcade game (Time Traveler?)that didn't require glasses, it was (pseudo?) holographic. It was very cool at the time and I'm surprised more hasn't been done with the technology. I think it used a domed mirror to "project" the game images.

I could be wrong but do you have any premium 3D domains in mind, that were hand registered in 2010 ?

Hi Katherine, ~
I could be wrong but do you have any premium 3D domains in mind, that were hand registered in 2010 ?

I am going to make post in a day or so....Then you can decide if : I have ~ have not... or "maybe"....It has to do with where I think the 3D ...is headed, so I do not know yet if they will be "premium" or not.

I do NOT as of now own any...that you would consider "premium"

IE: .I do understand these domains below are NOT: 3d .com ~ 3dtv .com ~ 3dmovies .com etc....

Your domain: 3dtelevision.us is very good...nice blog site congrats!

____

I will just give you an example of a few "3d" domain(s) I currently have....This is/was my thinking behind this "set" of Ten '3D' domain names' for a 3D Specific Niche:

The way "3d" movies are made VS your traditional "2D" movies are much much different...due to a host of factors and challenges...that many screen writers just do not understand yet.

I think movie production company's, movie director's etc... will require "screenplays" to be written in a more elaborate & specific way...to save them time and money.

So screen writers are really going to have to learn many new tricks, techniques etc...when writing a screenplay that is to be shot in 3D.



Popularity of 3-D is affecting how screenplays are written
Some filmmakers fear the technology will eventually dictate which films are greenlighted.

http://articles.latimes.com/2010/apr/25/entertainment/la-ca-3ddirector-20100425

So with these thoughts in mind, I registered:

3dscreenplays .com
3dmoviecreenplay .com
3dmoviescript .com
3dmoviescripts .com
3dmoviescriptwriter .com
3dscreenwriters .com
3dscreenwritertutorials .com
3dscreenwritertutorial .com
3dscreenwriterblog .com
3dscreenwriterforum .com

Will they be worth more or less than their reg fee? like most everything, only time will tell...but I have a feeling I will at least 'break even'.

They will most likely be developed much along the lines of your: 3dtelevision .us "Word Press" website... or in a "forum or membership site(s)"...type platform...mybe just "minisites" with the right information on them..articles etc...

Or... just sold as is..lol



*** NOTE: PER DNFORUM RULES ~ THESE DOMAINS ARE NOT POSTED OR OFFERED FOR SALE***


Just trying to keep this nice thread alive and interesting for All!

Peace!
Dan

All the companies involved in 3D are gearing their research to the ultimate goal where there will be no glasses required.

Wot... 100% agree

If at all possible..they will do it. (I am sure it is) ~ we put a man on the moon in the 1960's for Gods sake..lol

Billions upon Billions are going into this industry in just the next 1-2 years only...after 5-10 years who knows how much and what we will be seeing.

I think it will only be a matter of how they make "screens" or most likely a new development in the "lenses" and "optics" used...or a combination of the three.

I think...

It's just a matter of how the left and right eyes function when it sees 3D ...the glasses corrected now...but they will come up with a way, where it is corrected by the time it hits the screen.

( I think its mostly due to fact how each eye sees depths and colors a bit differently...depending on the left or right eye of a person)

In the meantime..I am sure "glasses" will get much better and it will not be that big of a deal in the short turn.

If it ends up 'long term glasses' are a must for 3D... That will just have to be life in the 3D industry.


Best,
Dan
