Happy New Year. Since it’s always a good question to ask at the beginning of a new year: What will this year bring for domainers?

Here are some things that come to mind:

• publicity (this will include more negative coverage)
• newbies
• new investors
• different levels of domain/site development
• new ad models
• portfolio sales and partnerships
• launch of .EU (more on this later)

What are your expectations/plans for the new year?
