Whether you like it on not, .me is doing much better than .mobi and .asia. .ME jingles better, and hence is more appropriate for marketing and branding. More to come.

Ignore my last message; I tried again, and it loaded just fine.

Great service to the .me TLD

Be careful when trying to link to rewarding (dot) me.

It crashed my computer; if nothing else, the webmasters need to streamline their pages so that they load easier.

By the way, I just saw some excellent dotme names will be in the DomainFest auction next week in Hollywood: contact, alert, save, feed, read, and even Hollywood.me (what a perfect venue for this name)

I may purchase a few of the beauts; they are crying out to be developed.

Contact.me – social media site
Alert.me – stocks, news, health, celebs, friends, weather, etc
Save.me – coupons, discounts, health, emergencies
Feed.me – NGOs, or restaurants pushing specials
Read.me – same as book.com for Barnes and Noble – would be great if Amazon or an e-book site picks this one up
Hollywood.me – great potential for a celeb blog site or info about movies, or a web 2.0 site for members to review movies, celeb chat, etc

Could be a fun domainfest. Some great dotcoms and a few dotnet gem also on the bidding block.

As a doubter of many of the most recent extensions that popped up (.asia, .mobi) .me actually made sense in my mind. I talked to folks out side of domaining a bit about it (always a good test to see how outsiders react) and they really thought it stuck and was more brandable than anything out side of .com when it came to “web 2.0″. On that note I made some specific investments at both reg fee and in the initial auction that have received solid feedback while doing link building and partnerships while developing.

Will it bypass .com anytime soon, NO, does it have a better chance than any of the others at being a brand that could be catchy and actually resonate with people outside the domaining community? The conversations I have had seem to say yes.

For the time being, .me does not show signs of fatigue in its evolution. There are still good keywords left to give a try at a registration fee.

It is always better to start as intuition tells than, regret in a few years time when your keyword.me is sold at a nice price and tell friends “I was about to buy it”. For creative people, not just speculators .me is the chance to realize oneself if you opt not to buy a HJPZ7.com for a reg fee.
