And you can get them for cheap. Got one .com as recently as last year, with the .org as a freebie. I'm now considering selling my 3 letters/numbers domain name - .net and .org.

How much was the .com? I've seen offered prices of $5K+ for fairly generic 4 letter domains...lot's of speculators buying and holdnig I guess...

Speculation- yes. I paid just below 100, and I considered that a tad expansive.

It's not a word but it is easy to say and to remember, and I needed one for a project, so I got it thinking I could reuse it later.
