Would you rather have me buy the other versions of your domain and then eventually when you catch wise, you have to buy them off me. Buying up domain names is big business.<br /> <br /> -BOR Totally agree with Jon and Lavanaut.

Federal Express was paying attention to its customers when it adopted FedEx as it's "official" name. It just makes good sense to go by/with what people refer to and know you by. Agreed.

Fred Meyer has *both* fredmeyer.com and fredmeyers.com, for instance. Somebody's squatting on freddies.com.<br /> <br /> Plus, "bendsummerfest.com" is easier to type. :) Despite the official name, it’s often common (and wise) to register multiple domains, particularly if people think of the shorter or alternative name.

Everyone calls Fred Meyer "Fred Meyer's" or "Freddie's," but that doesn't mean they should go and adopt one of those as their domain name.
