I don't think you realize just how much effort you have to put into finding
a vaguely pronounceable .com domain in today's world.
Marketing probably spent months asking the tech staff to do whois lookups
for them until they found something vaguely marketable.

I'm sure we'll eventually get back to AOL keyword searches and let anyone
register any random TLD they want.  Just email aaron@isawesome.
What?  No .com?
Nope.
What's your website?
Just type the keyword..er...domain 'isawesome' into your browser.
