Get Ready For .mobi

I've been doing research on domain names lately and it hit me. .mobi domain names are going to be popular very soon. Look at prices for PDAs/smartphones, they are dropping rapidly. Right now the prices are free to $99 for an entry level device. For example, the Blackjack 2 and Treo Centro are two devices costing less than $100, or even free in some instances. With PDAs/Smartphones, the #1 thing people will want (besides the phone service) is a data plan. Without that, the phone is almost useless and functionality is reduced.

That's when I got to thinking, "What do people need? What will people want?" The answer, a functional web page that serves a purpose. With that in mind, I decided to buy http://www.nettest.mobi and make it into a network testing site. You can ping, run a whois, check domain availability, etc. all on that page. You don't need to download anything either. I thought it would be quite handy for IT professionals when they don't access to a computer. I can even think of a few instances when I needed such a tool.

Another website I plan to build is http://www.birdguide.mobi for all of the bird watchers. Think about it for a minute. You're outside with no computer, but everyone keeps a phone on them. Wouldn't it be great if you could pull up a web page on your phone that had pictures and descriptions of the birds you were looking at? It also eliminates the need for a field guide if you've got an all in one reference in your pocket.

So, in order to succeed, I went from thinking, "I like this, I like that," to, "What do people want? What do people need?"
