Typos can be worth it IMHO (see example below)

Here is a perfect example: Google.com

As you can see, the two O's in google have been inverted. Imagine owning the google.com typo domain with the reversed O's. You would make, like, infinity dollars.

that is one very interesting story :lol:

Its an old story. Interesting though.

Yep agree old but very interesting.

Reading typo's and typing typo's are different though so I would not reg names that are just re-arranged. :gl:

 

[JoshHendo]

I don't think that typos are worth it. Mainly because, if someone goes to a typo domain name, they will realise they went to the wrong domain name, then just go to the one that they ment to.
