Hi,
must be out on my own here, big .info fan but Math doesn't make a whole lot of sense to me in the singular.
Does it in America?
I would have said low $xxx.
However judging by the other posts, take their word if you can get.

Had to post though as just don't see this one.
Sorry to be a party pooper! LOL
Cheers, Pred

maths: 25 million results in Google (mixed with "math" - therefore not an accurate sample)

math: 117 million results.

Math is proper. Maths is not - Mathematics *is* correct (whereas "mathematic" does not denote the particular field but rather, acts as an adjective - e.g. "mathematic calculation.")

LOL
yes i know the meanings lol
never good for an American to try to inform of correct 'English'
Not after all these years of playing around with our language! LOL
Quite surprised at the high overture in UK.
Hand on heart never heard it called math in my whole school life. Maths as the loose word or obviously Mathematics as the full term.
Like i said before just me LOL
Have to give my appraisal though. Know what i mean? ;)
Pred
nb: in reference to your explanation, like i said it must be an American thing. An English schoolboy would say we have maths today or mathematics today. Never we have math today or mathematic today.
Written it is a shortened version obviously. As a spoken word it doesn't work for me.
Also the fact that 'maths.info' was created in Sept.2001
& 'math.info' wasn't created until July 2002 says it all.
Maths.com '96
Math.com '98

Pred, Mathematica.com (the original Greek word) was registered in 1995 - what is your point exactly?

Sorry but "skool" jargon does not qualify here. Look it up either at Webster's dictionary or elsewhere.

I agree , it doesnt matter when domains were regged or who said what in which school, Math is the better word, and its worth more than maths, but I agree that it is not a high 4 figure domain, especially because its an abstact noun and not a tangible product or a service, I think its difficult enough to find end users for .info as it is, to find someone that would pay low to mid $x.xxx would be exceptional...

I. for one, have never heard it as "maths". Doesn't make sense to me. We, as Americans, have changed some things around with the language, but "math" has seemingly been the word over here since the beginning.

I'd say math.info = mid $x,xxx to end user, high $xxx to reseller.

Hi,
thanks, you answered my question. Obviously 'math' is used in the US as it is not in the UK.
That explains the conundrum. A British student would not say 'math'.... 'Period' you would say, we would say 'full stop'. Get my drift? :smilewinkgrin:
We find these idiosyncracies from time to time (hope spelled that correctly lol), between the Brits & the Yanks.
It happens from time to time. :smilewinkgrin:
Good luck with the sale if you wish sell. Post back & let us know what it goes for.
Predmeister (an Americanism)

Nb: Acroplex,
if you use Websters the American dictionary of course it will say that!
I'll explain slowly...US/Math....UK/Maths...lol
http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/maths
However , even i'll agree ,ideally you want the US buyers, deeper pockets LOL

Maybe not a tangible product or service, but it's a .info - pre-written essays make good money, and there is nothing with a better margin than infomation.....

I stick with my $8-12k valuation

i respect your opinion, just want to say that if 8-12K is end user 30% of that is reseller, so that would mean YOU are willing to pay 3-4K right now..are you?

If I had the cash spare, yes I genuinely would....is it available at that price?

BTW, the respect is mutual - one mans trash is another mans treasure I guess

Not many essays to be written by math / maths students ?!;)


I gotta stick up for the Brits (and maybe the Commonwealth)... math.info will be worth more than maths.info (because of your 300 million US population)... but it sounds ridiculous.

It should be maths. Just like roundabout isn't rotary (or traffic circle), jam isn't jelly, manual isn't stick shift and vest isn't wife-beater [to name a few!]

My girlfriend is from US and she has now messed up my spelling and sometimes my ability to communicate simple phrases my own friends and family :eek:

All good fun!

I have 2 dictionaries in my bookmarks:
http://dictionary.cambridge.org -UK
http://www.dictionary.com/ -US
To Americans: Why did you have to change things?
