I’ve written about .mobi quite a bit over the last few months.
There are a few reasons for this:
- I’ve met most of the team and thought they were cool people
- They’re actually based in Ireland and employ Irish people (yes that is a bit of national pride you’re seeing!)
- They seem to have a vision and a mission
- They’re trying (and succeeding) to make the mobile web a reality
- They’ve been following up on their promises
- They dont’ seem to have as many issues with cybersquatters etc.,
- They seem to be much more engaged with end users via their blogs and other channels
In any case the most recent post by CEO Neil Edwards really caught my eye. In it he dispels some of the “popular myths” and rumours surrounding the TLD, but he also makes public what has to be one of the coolest things a TLD manager could offer:
In fact, dotMobi has a standing offer. If you ever buy a dotMobi name
and have a problem building conent, contact us. We will either help you
directly, provide you with a tool or connect you with firm who can help
you.
Now that is cool!
