On the basis of my experience with DataFix.com, I recommend reserving at 
least both *.net and *.org variations of TiddlyWiki.com.  The relatively 
recent extension of the TLD names has reduces the pressure on domain names, 
but I clearly remember having to sign a contractual obligation that we 
would not use DataFix.com for commercial purposes as recently as 1993.

Since DataFix now hosts a large number of sites, we generally register the 
Sitename.com, *.net and *.org.  As a general rule, we use *.com as a 
default, but data Users tend to operate on .ORG (as in ORGanizational 
user's) sites, while data Owners tend to use .NET (as in data on interNET) 
sites.
