.mobi?

[Alien]

I actually saw.....for the first time ever I may add (!), a .mobi DN on the back of a mini-bus last week, can't remember exactly what it was, but related to cheap mini bus hire or something!

I have x1 .mobi, a LLL.mobi, reg'd in 2006; previous site on it for some years, currently unused. Are they worth owt? I'd like to dispose of.

IMHO .mobi is dead.

I remember the hype train on another forum about how mobi would take over the world (substitute the word mobi with uk, new gtld, bitcoin, whatever) and Rick Schwartz apparently paid $500,000 for flowers.mobi. Like every extension before and after it was the same hype followed by the same pump and dump followed by the same people getting richer at the expense of those left 'holding the baby'. Nothing changes

-- edit -- it was $200k not 500 (was 10 years ago after all my memory is faulty)
Here is a link to him arrogantly (as usual) justifying the purchase at the time.
