As a TLD, .mobi has yet to reach its landrush anniversary and a lot of speculative domains will be dumped then. The development will become somewhat clearer but as a TLD, I think .mobi is going to be a niche extension for a while yet. Your third prediction is definitely one to think about. Many of the search engines seem to just drop PPC and parked domains or at least put them way down in the results. This pattern of blurring the lines between a PPC landing page and an actively developed website should change things for CTR but will it also force the search engines to reconsider how they treat PPC and parking?

Sorry, looks like that's already happened. ;-) 2008 will be the year every domain seller and seller platform/auction venue will call all of their domains “premium”…oops!
