Trick or treat? I just watched Pt.1 of the Schwartz vs Schilling debate again, it was a little frightening watching it on Halloween but I braved it, lol, one thing stood out for sure, all of those debating on both sides are smart successful domain investors that have opinions I respect, which doesn’t make things any easier when trying to predict the future of domains, it’s like trick or treat?
I basically agree with both sides, can I do that? I think .brand’s will be used and known in 20 years, in the meantime there will be plenty of .mobi moments, I don’t think .com will become irrelevant or go down in value in my lifetime, and for the next many years I think .com registrations will keep up with .brand’s, it will be just like now where the Meet.me folks also get MeetMe.com, or if they don’t somebody will, I bet for the next 20 years almost every Great.Idea that is registered will have the corresponding GreatIdea.com registered also, if it is not already, will Great.Idea become more valuable than GreatIdea.com, trick or treat?
Another thing I was thinking, Monte said there are 110 million Irish in the world so .Irish will be a successful TLD, I agree there are 110 million Irish in the world but it will be interesting to see how many will translate into .Irish domain registrations, I guess I am from the .US so I am a little skeptical about how excited a group might get about a domain extension, so far .US has been more like a trick than a treat for me, but I will be watching this one, and I will add, success has many measurements, as a domain investor .Irish might not do much for me, but the registrar might have a completely different experience, something to watch.
Anyway, after assessing this brave new TLD world I have come to the conclusion that the registrars will be the real winners regardless of fortunes made and lost by domain investors like myself, this combined with issues I have had with some of the registrars where my domains reside has helped decide my fate, my partner and I are starting our own registrar, and yes, this means I will be pushing .ninja next year, lol. Trick or treat?

Thanks for visiting…
Before I knew anything about domaining every time I would see a .US I always thought it meant US as in WE not as in USA. I wonder sometimes if it would have been more successful as .USA instead of .US
