Can somebody please suggest a good domain?

    I'm trying to open an url shortening service. I can't think of a good domain name though. I need something that's short, easy to remember, maybe has something to do with twitter in it. Any suggestions would be really helpful! I don't want anything over 10 chars probably. I was thinking something like tweet.to
    Thanks!

    An RT on Twitter is a ReTweet.

    Do you use twitter for marketing?

    If it's targeted for those users they would probably recognize it. Keep in mind I pulled that out off the top of my head, I'm sure others would disagree.

    so why rtme.to? I would do like rt.us something as short as possible. I think rt.me is already taken

    No reason for .me at all, but you used it in the original post so I thought you might have wanted to go with that.

    I suppose there are a lot of domain name registrars offering domain name registration in this domain name zone not only godaddy

    In theory the domain for these type of sites would be better off being a short one but that is not always the case the 2nd most popular one is tinyurl.com that has not held the site up has it and that has 7 letters i have just started one with 7 letters and i feel its how you promote it that counts.I think tinyurl would be better than say thy.to that is just my opinion and also a domain that people can be easily remember.

    What script are you going to use or are you building your own ???

    Do you have a budget?
    I got 0ut.us for URL shortening but am not using it so willing to sell.
    (thats a zero not a letter O btw)

    For shortness and low pricing I figured a CCC.us is the best bet and still some available.
    Here's one for you T3X.US ... looks like Tex ... twitter expert, text us, tweet express, Texus...

    I'm using the script from laurusmedia: http://www.laurusmedia.net/products-shorturl.html

    Also, I was thinking something like tinytwt.us or tinytwt.me those are both short..
