While UK fundraisers might be more familiar with the Oxford English Dictionary,
US fundraisers are more likely to consult Webster’s English Dictionary. So maybe
the fact that 98% of all words in Webster’s have been registered as domain names
will sound more of a warning knell to US fundraisers, but it should still suggest
to fundraisers in the UK that they really must register relevant domain names as
soon as possible.
