Free .mobi Domain Name!

I received an interesting email promotion from Network Solutions today.

“Register a new .com, .net, .org, .biz, .info, .us or .name domain name extension for any term and get a free .mobi domain name for a 1-year term.”

I guess they have resorted to just giving .mobi names away. I use my Blackberry’s web browser all the time, but I have not had the need or desire to use the .mobi extension. Even though the Weather Channel has a “mobile compatible” website at Weather.mobi, I can still access my local weather by using Weather.com on my Blackberry. I still don’t see a need for this extension.

  1. Android phones like mine arn’t big enough to fit all the content on the screen .mobi allow it to fit on the screen easily when you buy one you would use a converter to make your computer website a mobil website.

    Ps:My phone is not big enough to fit the weather website on my phone so i use http://www.Weather.mobi.
