.com vs .co

[spanishboy]

La Universidad de Los Andes, which manage Colombia's .co country code, is inviting bids from companies that would market the domain name internationally as a convenient alternative to .com.

The .co domain could clearly be interpreted as an abbreviation for "company".

What is better yourcompany.com or yourcompany.co?

com is the international standard now...i don't think merriam webster is going to change the phrase dot com to dot co. ;)
