If your marketing is mostly online and you're targeting more geeks, then a cool foreign domain is fine.

If you're targeting the masses, and marketing in print, then you need something more obvious which is easy to phonetically speak.

Having said that, I've seen some awful "dot-coms" read out on TV ads and radio ads over the years...

Brilliant, well done. I had no idea most of these existed and have been using Google Checkout since Paypal locked us out.

Jesus, downvotes for mentioning Google Wave.

I was specifically responding to this part: >A web where re-sharing of content is limited by the platform, not by the capabilities of your client. A web where you cannot comment on an article unless registering in a corporate namespace (which kicked you out if you happened to choose a name they do not particularly like).

The point was that Google tried it open, it didn't work. Facebook is closed, they tried that. Is it working?

Google tried it the other way via Google Wave and unfortunately nobody bought into it.

Peugeot suffers with the same issue:

I think this is pretty common through the motor trade. They simply cannot move quick enough.
