Are you buying .CO?

I see the hype has been around, and is still building surrounding .CO extension...

Will you be/Have you been registering many/any?

not buying any even if they were giving them away

The only 'value' as far as I can see is in the typos of big .com websites isn't it?

I would agree.

If any of our clients were considering a .co as their primary domain I would advise them against it for the simple reason 99% of people you know are at least going to add the 'm' if not also the '.au' on to the end purely out of habit.

i don't think i have ever mis typed .com , so on that basis i would not be regging any

on a side note i do sometimes type in dntrade.com and forget the .au

Saying that I did pre-reg 3... just in case

(non-typos)

I've pre-registered four "one-word" generic terms - although I don't expect to land any of them.

I never type anymore domains, Chrome just suggests me whatever I typed only the few timesI did, or I google it so typos are already a soon to be useless niche of domains.

what I want to know is what's going to happen to the extension as Columbia's ccTLD? If the 'top 200,000' domains are snapped up by speculators how can the locals easily use it? 45 million of them...

It is being promoted as more a global domain extension rather than Columbia's ccTLD, I don't expect many to associate it as Columbia in the longer term.
