Why pick a fight with a company that is known to aggressively defend their TMs?

Their annual legal budget to defend TMs is probably $ x - xx million.
They told the industry a while back, they will spend $ 100K in legal fees over worthless domains just to make a point with the offender.

If you play around with a snake, you will eventually be bitten.

I like Bing (and all the traffic they are bringing my sites) and wanted to make it my default SE but did not because they amazingly do not have a toolbar yet and say they are still working in it.

:eek:k:

Same here - the traffic rocks. Some of my sites it STILL brings in more traffic than Google.

Edit:

Site#1:

15 direct links from Bing (2.7% of the traffic - all the other search engines don't even add up to 10 hits total)
14 direct links fro Babelfish (huh?)

Site #2:
33% of traffic is coming from Bing

Surprisingly, one of my websites that is no.1 on Google gets no visitors at all from either Yahoo or Bing

Not interested in bingy domains but what does 1800 means? I see your a fan of it:smilewinkgrin:

In the US - a 1-800 phone number is a free call - usually for businesses. (like 1-800-Flowers. Some of these companies you can also go to the site (like 1800Flowers.com ).

Assuming you have a good 1800 number .com do you see any value if the equivalent phone number is owned by someone else and not even used in the same category business?
