I think your analysis is sound. .WEB will be merely a synonym for .NET, which has
the advantage that many people know about it already. So why have a .WEB if you can
have a .NET? You won't! And there is lots and lots of names still in .NET. I would
predict that for this reason (apart from registrations of two and three letter names
for speculation, 97% [or so] of which will not be in the air, like in .com) not many
will get a .WEB, except names like news.web, open.web, love.web. So .NET would be
more wanted still even after Yokohama. .ORG may be less attractive for business,
though you can get really good names there still. Well, names I think are good. (And
English is not my native language, as you will have gathered already.) How about
OUST.ORG I got it today. This brings me down to what I wrote here before:
Why new gTLDs? We don't need them.
