Subject:	This is true....If the value of a domain name is traffic generation
Message:
Which I believe it is. The idea behind investing in domain names is getting ones that will generate traffic to an e-commerce website. If the general public will not randomly type in a domain name extension, then that extention holds no value. Judging by my webstats over the years, .com and .org generate the most traffic. I think within a year, generic .info names will make their mark and start pumping traffic for their webmasters. However, and perhaps surprising to some, I think .biz names will hold significantly less value than .info because of the business restriction. Any thoughts?
