Google's Dotless http://search

Dotless search has been discussed here a few times, it looks like not everyone is a fan of the idea.

Dotless Internet domains are likely to confuse users, ICANN-affiliated committees say

Google's chances of obtaining the "http://search" domain name are shrinking after several committees affiliated with the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN) recently warned that dotless domain names could be harmful to the Internet.
