We're seeing more and more people that have no idea what the location bar is for and will type a url in the google search box if they want to visit it.
There's also a trend to start using the location bar as a search bar. Firefox for example has a domain guessing feature. You type a keyword in the location bar and it slaps on the .com suffix (if you have keyword search disabled, otherwise it just goes to google search).
Personally, I think that the whole idea that people will somehow start visiting themicronichetheyarelookingfor.xxx instead of doing a search for "the micro niche they are looking for" is .xxx wishful thinking or marketing talk.
Besides, if the whole value of .xxx domains is their typein potential then only keywords.xxx have any 'value', brands.com might as well keep using their .com

I am fully aware of how people search. Buckle your seatbelt and let's find out together. I strongly believe that you are 100% wrong when saying .xxx will be another secondary TLD. That is all.
And I'm sorry but I could brand the fuck out of webcams.xxx . Surfers might type a keyword when looking for the domain but that doesn't mean they don't now what the url bar does, they just find it easier to bounce through an auto redirect. If they want webcams.xxx and webcams points them elsewhere they'll either put webcams xxx or webcams.xxx and move on with their browsing.
