The .info TLD is supposed to be used for information sites. So far has it been most popular in Europe. You can get .info domains cheap because of different promotions of the .info TLD.

Europe? Really? 99.9% of sites that use .info domain are in English, I have seen only very few (maybe about 10 or so) non-english sites that use .info domain. And I have seen only one Estonian .info site, but that has changed to .ee now, so I guess there are no more sites in Estonian. Most of the Estonians have never even heard of .info

The first year is cheap but the renewal cost is in line with other extensions, its a good way to build up the appeal of a new extension to keep the initial cost low.
