Some thoughts:

.org/.net causes people to screw up the URL more

[/ QUOTE ]

I hadn't thought this would be a huge deal since there are some fairly popular .org sites out there. But, more than a couple of you have mentioned this, so I'll keep that in mind for sure.

last letter of first word being the same as the first letter of the next word also causes people to screw up the URL more

[/ QUOTE ]

That's a good point for sure.

I think of more alone these lines.

Say your sites name is pokersucks.org. It comes up in conversation, someone remembers the pokersucks part but types in .com. Nothing comes up. I think a larger percentage would NOT bother to google pokersucks, or to try other extensions.

Sure there are some popular .orgs and .nets but if it can be AT ALL avoided I would.

In terms of the name itself, keep in mind those same kind of people. Avoid anything that can be mispelled, misheard, or misunderstood.
