I've been searching for a good .com domain for my upcoming CMS (SaaS), but after reading this I'll probably get a non-US controlled domain at least for the service itself, and just use .com for a marketing site, if at all. Moreover, .com is

Dev^H^H^HPeople are lazy. Preprocessor tools exist but installing and running them is always extra work unless 100% integrated into workflow. What if there was one common "-experimental-" or "-x-" prefix instead of multiple vendor prefixes?

For me the linear gradient hints that the surface is curved on one axis, i.e. is cylindrical, not spherical. Of course the context plays a role too on the perceived illusion; the appearance of changing light source may be stronger for lonel
