We did a test with 30 people and they all remembered with no coercing that they should. I was really shocked actually.

Smart, this was the final straw, TLD's will soon be much more flexible and each generation will be more and more used to niche ones. We will definatly see more TLD's that will be relevant per industry. .edu .gov .info .tv .pro ect.. these will someday be almost as popular as .com and the silly .irrelevant ones like .coke will be what we think of .info now.

But the bottom line is 30 people all thought the domain sounded professional and was easy to remember and had no ill feeling to not being a .com. These are not internet business people, just average local business owners and families.
