poll .Tech or .Technology?

[Wass]

Long or Short?

 

[Branko Jovanovic]

Shorter better by all means, its easyer to remember and more catchy.

 

[Wass]

Yes I know .Tech is the big favorite in this poll but I wanted to know if there is someone who prefers .Technology...

 

[Rhythm8]

DXC prefers .technology

DXC prefers .technology

DXC prefers .technology because the name of the company is DXC technology. (exact matching...)

TECH and TECHNOLOGY have different meanings in MOST uses.

Tech = Technical, Technically, Technological, Technician and sometimes, only sometimes, TECHNOLOGY.

Technology = The application of scientific knowledge for practical purposes, especially in industry.

Computer.Technology is far different than Computer.Tech.
Car.Technology is far different than Car.Tech
Home.Technology vs. Home.Tech
I could go on and on.....

Takeaway here is that under MOST circumstances 'TECH' is not a good shortener for 'TECHNOLOGY'.

If I'd register word.tech for my own use, I'd make sure I also own wordtech.com though... The same with .technology.

DXC Technology owns its .com, so it can afford the play with gtld...

The question of this thread is: if you like nGTLDs and Technology what do you prefer: .Tech or .Technology?
For the war between nGTLDs and .com there are so many other threads...

 

[Bros]

Don't know much about nGTLDs, but .tech would seem better suited, for example, for startups.

Please preach somewhere else... I chose .tech over .technology, but also mentioned that it is with asterisk (I'd chose it only if I have .com of it)...

You see war everywhere and remind me of Don Quixote...

You are right: technology = technology & tech = many things...

Tech

Shorter, means the same, easier to spell, and sounds more modern.

Wikipedia says "Tech is an abbreviation for technology"

Tech gadgets, future tech, space tech,...
