Folks, "insidertradin.com" (without the 'g') is a terrible domain name. It's long, difficult to communicate, and looks unprofessional. Imagine someone being told over the phone (or via a radio or television advertisement), "Check out this great new trading site at www.insidertradin.com". You can be sure that person will hear (and type) www.insidertrading.com (with the 'g') and end up at a competitors site! (The name is registered to the Individual Investors Group). Heck, a name like www.insidertradin.com just begs you to go to www.insidertrading.com just to find out who got the 'g'!
I have looked at other alternatives to this domain name, and the best unregistered name I can find is "instrade.com". IMHO, this is a better domain name. Not great, just better. It's short, not as prone to confusion, and doesn't look as much like you ended up in second place in the domain name race.
This may sound like a trivial detail, but I'm telling you these things are important. If others here agree, someone who already has John's ear should contact him, stress that simply dumping the 'g' from a potential competitors domain name is NOT the way to go, and suggest "instrade.com" as a better alternative.
