Matt announced today that he has transferred his personal domain to Ma.tt – what a fantastic idea! He’s using the extension for Trinidad and Tobago. Companies like deli.cio.us have used this concept to great effect already – but having such a unique and short domain name is certainly appealing.

I immediately jumped onto this IANA site for a list of country top level domains and have submitted my request to the Netherlands Antilles. Given that the country will basically be dissolved as such by the end of the year, I’m not hugely hopeful of acquiring http://bry.an but it’s gottta be worth a shot!

You setup your virtual “stand” filled with products you’d recommend to friends. Add the widget to your Facebook, MySpace or blog pages and when purchases are made through your site, you receive 5% to 15% of the cost of the item.

The stands are a win-win for everyone: Online retailers get free advertisements, social networkers are recommended good products, and you get paid if the deal goes through.
