I agree that domain names might be less valuable in the future, but only because there will be lots more choice instead of just .com...That is, more people will assume the web is full of more than just .com domains, and will take other TLDs more seriously. (At least I hope.) Also, if more and more users rely ONLY on search engines rather than domains to arrive at a website, that is essentially the definition of a walled garden...because if i'm a small - even a somewhat medium - business with a website, I now have to spend even more effort than before on SEO, just so when searchers type in my business name it won't get confused in search results with other similarly named companies, or push me down on a search results page...And then there's the whole concept of being at the whim of a search engine's policy: if i piss off a search engine and they prevent me from showing up in results, my business almost entirely "disappears from the (silo) web"...No offense, but i hope your prediction does not come true. ;-)
