    .im is proving to be a better hack than most of the other released domain extensions before it.

    What do you say about the domain extension. Have you registered any ?

    I have snatched a couple of nice domains. ;)

    There you go my friend ;)

    A domain hack is an unconventional domain name that combines domain levels, especially the top-level domain (TLD), to spell out the full "name" or title of the domain, making a kind of pun. Well-known examples include blo.gs, del.icio.us, and cr.yp.to.
    Code (markup):
    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Domain_hack

    I own this domain http://Smoker.im

    So it's like saying "Smoker I am" or "I'm a Smoker"

    It's not as brandable, cause people might spell it wrong.

    Spell wrong what ?? The extension - .im ?

    I don't think so. The people on the Internet are more used to typing "I'm" than "I am".
    It's all the Yahoo and MSN messenger effects.

    .us > .im by far, there have been many good .us sales but not .im
    Also .us has meaning, .im is just another junk extension icann cash grab.

    Well .us is very old. And it would take some time before .im starts to prove a better alternate for many..
