    Hi,

    Just want your opinions, I'm looking to start a blog with WordPress and the only tld I have for it is a .org

    But since the name + tld fits so well, I just want to use the .org...but I'm not sure whether there are any blogs that have a .org cos most would be .com

    Is this a good idea...to use .org for a blog? Are there any examples of top blogs with .org?

    Thanks

    That's a good idea,indeed.I've seen many blogs with .org urls.I'd recommend you use .org domain if you want to create a personal blog.

    I don't see any reason why you can't have a blog with .org domain.

    Not really...

    I have used .org before for company-based sites with no problems.
