So .. if we can.. maybe a little review with what little information we have already in regards to dot co domain names that can possibly help some of us now and in the future.
... i would love everyone's opinions on this if we could.

Please feel free to revise, edit, add or subtract anything from below.
At this very early stage of existence for the dot co extension, would you agree or disagree with all or any of the following:
a) - the highest perceived value 'at the moment' appears to be spanish/columbian words.
b) - geo names with dot co are - and will be - very valuable and sought after with this extension.
c) - .co hacks (a domain name which ties the extension to the overall name to form one complete word) is considered now, and later, to be very valuable and/or sought after
d) - a spanish/columbian 'hack' will now and in the future be considered valuable.
e) - LLL's and NNN's will now and in the future be considered valuable and in demand in the dot co extension.
f) - 'most' product names, again, 'at the moment', don't appear to carry as much value yet as the above style of names (?)
g) - the disappointing results from the TRAFFIC auction are nothing more than circumstance (bad website, lack of promotion..etc) more so than growing perception of lack of value.
h) - in "MOST" cases (not counting obvious differences, like organizational names), if there was a dot com that you wanted and it was taken, your next choice would be a dot co extension.
i) - dot co names, to those who have tried, are finding it to be a hard sell at the moment to potential end users.
j) - July 20, 2011 is going to be a FIELD day for drops.

I wouldn't say that any or all of these are of my opinion, just a quick little rundown of some things we can take from the first quarter results.
Thanks all .. looking forward to hearing from both sides of this discussion.
