Hi folks, so what markets (not domain extensions or LLLLL.com’s, ect) do you think will be the next big thing? I will start the ball rolling with a few I have heard of:

3d
ar (augmented reality)
m2m
mcommerce

What would you add to the list?

US HEALTH CARE. With the passage of FEDiCare, I think a boom for "Health Centers" domains are next. The plan calls for "Health Centers"

Nothing is a good as something that is "fad" proof, though.

Definitely, Augmented Reality (AR).
Most Big Brands have an AR product or prepare an AR project. AR has an impact on every industry not only technology.
Several AR event are taking place this year you just have to take a look at their Name.
AR DevCamp
ARE2010 http://augmentedrealityevent.com
AR Consortium
AR Door
Sony PlayStation has just released a demonstration of their impressive "PlayStation Move System" that include AR.

Next big things:

a) biometric ID cards required by all citizens and illegal immigrants;

b) new advances in auto-batteries and auto/home fuel sources;

c) stem-cell advances; biotechnology development advances in cancer (eg Melafinder is incredible pending device to id melanoma cancer) and all diseases;

d) revaluation of US$ to a N. American currency; computers/smart phones allow smells to be emitted to "viewers/smellers" on receiving end.

exactly!

people typically ask those kind of questions when they are looking for domain purchasing ideas

but if you really want to know the next big thing...

"actual alien encounters"

we will soon come to know, that we are not alone

As far as I am aware mcommerce stands for mobile commerce, m2m stands for machine 2 machine.

mCommerce (with the letter "m" standing for Mobile) is very rapidly being replaced to mean Medical as evidenced by all the trade journals (print and internet content) I read and get.

Augmented reality stands a chance as a big market, but no one is going to be searching for "augmented reality" in the wild ... they'll be looking for the specific features that an AR application has to offer. It's a tough nut to crack, AR search metrics.

Fabrication technology (rapid prototyping, home fabbers etc.) has come farther in the last ten years than 3D, AR, and many other domainer buzzwords. Search volume for related terms is pretty weak right now, but I personally believe both in the technology and in its potential to explode as a market in the coming decade. Unfortunately in that market it's largely about brandables (Ponoko.com for example) so trying to put together domains with fab and fabber and other such terms in them is hard to justify. I would love to have gotten fab.it though ... now owned by an aluminum fab company in Italy unfortunately, so not going anywhere soon .

This may be true but the vast majority of "domainers" are handling this wrong.

The next big thing is to be a registrar of the next big thing.
