Good question. Here are some thoughts: The analysis presumably resolves .us = 'United States' .ca = 'Canada' .de = 'Germany' .edu = 'US educational' .net = 'network' It appears that they falsely assume that .com = US commercial Many non-US commercial companies use this suffix The following two suffixes are US, but it is not clear whether they would be recorded as such or would be given their own category. .mil .gov It is not clear what they do with .org It should not be attributed to any particular country They may have an incomplete look up table for other countries. And/or they may simply combine small scores into an 'other' category to prevent the table from getting difficult to read. -- Terry Simpson Human Factors Consultant [EMAIL PROTECTED] www.connected-systems.com Phone: +44 7850 511794
