Was just a visitor for two weeks..time to go back and wanted to leave this thead behind to stir up some controversy.

Favorite letters in LLLL domains are HQ either as the last two or the first two. HQ is universally understood to be Headquarters and the textbook definiton is " the center of operations and administration "

Most LLLL domains are something where we have to try and figure out what would go with it. But by using HQ, you have solved 1/2 of the equation already. So, now whoever buys your domain only has to figure out the other two letters of significant meaning.

For exampe: IThq.mobi can be Information Technology Headquarters, as well as Italy Headquarters which would make a great portal site for eveything about Italy.

And to all who are constantly touting that domain names for .mobi must be intuitive because it will be type-in traffic. Not really.

It needs to be short enough and memorable enough to get them to the site and then they can save it in their favorites. 4 letter short domains that are easily understood may be " dumbing down " the mobile Internet but was anyone going to use it for the typing experience?

So, is it better to have InformationTechnology.mobi or IThq.mobi?

If the short line gets you there, has suitable content for your needs and you can bookmark it, why worry about typing informationTechnology? Thumb exercise? Phiilippines.mobi or PHhq.mobi? It really is a simple question to answer.

Can't ZWhq.mobi be a domain for a recycikng company at ZeroWaste Headquarters or is it a portal used as Zimbabwe Headquarters?

These type of domains can define a business, country or a Continent: Surely, most people could imagine AUhq.mobi as representative of the great land Downunder.

Isn't the Internet and text-messaging fraught with abbreviation? So, why cant HQop.mobi stand for Headquarters of....Poker or Porn?

I examined this coding system and bught some 100 domains that are the official coutry code followed by HQ. They can also be used as short identities for an existing business. UA the country code for the Ukraine can easily be a portal for somene who wants to build one using the abrreviated UAhq.mobi

However, United Artists, the film making giant, presenty uses unitedartsists.com. Perhaps, UAhq.mobi is of some value to them now, as the Internet develops.

So, let your creativity run wild with the letter combination of HQ in the back or on the front. Think of companies whose identity you can capture without trademark infringement. Quite frankly. HQ as half the make up of the domain, will usually solve that problem for you because very few compnaies are trademarked by 2 letters.

Go acquire some to sell to someone wanting to buld a portal for a country, as portals generate significant traffic.

I only took 100, so that leaves about 145 companies.
