Ok, just kidding with the last set
Thats only coz they had .co.in before .in was released and they spent a pretty penny on advertising it BEFORE they got the .in
http://www.google.in
I would love to see some examples of MAJOR companies being launched now with the .co.in... (only commercial companies, not govt. ones).
Here are some on .in, launched after feb '05
airtel.in
vodafone.in
nivea.in
oneindia.in
click.in
airfrance.in
zoomtv.in
zoom.in
ibrand.in
... I could probably go on all day.
And what happens here on in is what matters... after all, some of us want to sell domains..
lll.in sold out, lll.co.in 12k left... lets see when and if they do sell out.
I think the .in/.co.in argument has been done to death, .in is as much superior to .co.in as .com is to .net, at least imho.
