What does X mean in the Domain World?

[Jammer]

What does the letter X mean or stand for in the Domain/Internet World?
Obviously there are several interpretations....
For example I see a few people here advertising areaX.com....
X for extreme?
X marks the spot?
xchange?
Your thoughts and ideas?

I like the "X" as it can be just as brandable/memorable as a generic word (and cheaper if budget doesn't allow the purchase of the higher priced generic). I have developed one site Xcard and have several domains like that as well- LEZx com, sugarx. com , sugX (off the top of my head).
