Just go enom.com register platform "9 3/4" where you can register a .adulu domain.

adulu is real island

.com (it is the first one most people check)
.net
.eu
.mobi (still better than m.domain.com/mobile.domain.com)
.ie (for local use)

I think .co.uk is too long an extension... Anyone looking at .asia at the moment?

So what will happen when there are more extensions available (though it won't happen anytime soon!)?

at the moment ... its strange ( at least in my mind )

If I'm looking for a domain I'll go .com first ...

.eu hasn't really taken hold in my mind ...

Am I special in that regard that I just go for the .coms ? ...

com is the 1st and obvious choice
I will look at eu and I like especially if your site is selling something to the only the european market

I also like de and am trying to buy some know
I think its the most popular after .com or at least the most popular country domain
at around 9 million registered

.de is no longer the most popular ccTLD. .cn is now the most popular ccTLD
