    I think about registering us. domain > www.example.us

    I didn't find much us. domains on google index.
    Still wondering how Google will treat such a domain.

    Please write you thoughts.

    Main advantage is that your telling people that you are US based

    also has branding potential example moneyr(dot)us (taken)!
    As for google/yahoo/msn..depends on how you SEO your site!

    Sorry it took me so long to respond!
    Only United States citizen or permanent resident, as well as any business or organization with a bona fide presence in the U.S., can register a .us domain name.

    I have a few with significant page 1, 3-word keyword google rankings - therefore I'm all for them ;)
