gTLD Madness: Team Schilling vs Team Schwartz, Part 2

A few things I found interesting in this conference, some with I agree and a few I disagree with. Something that I am sure of is that domainers are always first and best informed:

• 80% new gTLD may fail;
• .TRAVEL is a success;
• used.cars is a good domain name;
• Domainers wasted money on .INFO domain names;
• 1% people have a domain name;
• .TATTO is a strong TLD;
• tatoo.tatoo should resolve by Halloween;
• 25.000 registrations is .TATOO;
• .LINK will be a success;
• .LINK will cost $8;
• .SEXY will be big and cost $8;
• I don't buy .ORG and .NET anymore;
• The next generation will know 500 new extensions;
• Facebook will offer webpages for free with no domain name;
• New domain names are a growing market;
• The worldwide market is only 25% penetrated on the web;
• 5 billion people not even online yet;
• There is no email without a domain name;
• The key about new gTLDs success is advertising;
• No gTLD will replace .COM;
• There's going to be a flood of "new options";
• Some Registries can say stupid things ;-);
• It is all about to be about marketing;
• 20 years ago no one knew what .COM were;
• .MOBI is a failure, why is someone going for .MOBILE?
• .SECURE will have anti-spam and anti-phishing technology;
• .SECURE domain names will cost $10.000 each;
• In Germany, all advertising is on .DE, not .COM;
• It is a .COM world for domainers, not for the rest of the world.
