As the name itself suggests, .info are for sites giving out information while .com should be used for commercial activities....but then people always prefer to use .com since it has a very good recall value.

.info domains are popular but has low importance in comparison to .com domain names that is why .info domains are in promotion most of the time you get it for 0.99$ at Godaddy but .info sites are for low budget projects and quick sale sites.

It has always been .com and i guess it will still be .com the major Domain extension for a long time to come...

Yes ofcourse, everyone's expecting a saturation and sooner or later it will come along..

.info is a "noob" domain name in my eyes. Remember a few years ago when they gave those out for free? Unlimited free .infos! LOL!

They're a joke in the domain world, and usually will not sell for more than your registration fee, usually less.

So if you can get a .com yes, go for it. People don't like to agree with it but names are important!

absolutely, these .info domains were a joke and still are.. In fact these have become a good breeding ground for the spread of spam and illegal content over the web.. since these domains were given free and off late were offered for even less than USD 1..

Obviously, a lot of spammers and speculators got onto the bandwagon and registered a lot a .infos!!

I don't know why your saying that ? Just take a look at www.prchecker.info , it's in top position for Google Pagerank Checker and it's PR7.. even .info can do good and bring better fortune..

IMO, .com is better. People will remember .com much easier. The extra price is worth it.
