this deserves to be a topic, so I've pulled it from another thread.

I don't know if it is true, but I've heard that most search engines are going to use the IP address in place of the domain name to place sites. So those who spent a load of money to get a domain with keywords in the name, wasted their time? Tell me it isn't so?

backus, I'd say something is coming to reduce domain name spamming. According to several posts here and at SEF, the value of domain name as keyword has already been reduced in the algos.

Okay, domain name spamming, that's something different; but this'll hurt those who are really trying to make a ligit' site and use the domain name, not to span but to give a good name!
