Far be it for us to offer advice to industry experts but before we spent $44 million dollars to acquire a search company like Yahoo, we would look at 1-Dial and 1-Dash domains using relevant keywords to capture the mobile 'Search market'...

NFO is a 'geek' shortcut for info.

1-Dash and 1-Dial Domains cross domain extensions to mobile users because they look like phone numbers.

Note: If you are just joining us, the numbers in this analysis translate to the word 'as 'spelled' on a phone keypad.

2265 spells Bank and the 1- mimics a phone number, etc.

See 'Numbers That Work' for an Executive Summary of the 1-Dial and 1-Dash naming conventions.

This is what we mean when we say things like:
'The Internet is Ready; Domain Appraisers Are Not'

Hmm, maybe that's not so subtle...
