I refuse to use SaaS products behind a .ly domain. That&#x27;s the TLD for Libya, against whom the US government has sanctions. If that wasn&#x27;t bad enough, the .ly registry can and will revoke your domain name on a whim based on the content of your site, e.g. vb.ly per <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/.ly" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;en.wikipedia.org&#x2F;wiki&#x2F;.ly</a> . Not exactly business friendly.

I&#x27;m not sure I&#x27;d classify this as a web development &quot;super power&quot;.<p>Companies like AKQA, RG&#x2F;A, Huge and Code + Theory have hundreds of employees and engineers and work on multi-million dollar web projects. At 33 folks this is still a fairly small shop in the grand scheme of things.
