I received a question recently about Hyla Vacuum Cleaners maintenance. My other post about Hyla maintenance focused on the Electro Brush.

I was recently asked for my opinion on choosing a domain name. This case was a personal site, but a lot of the considerations are the same whether the site will be used for personal or commercial purposes. I ended up putting quite a bit of thought into my answer so I decided to share it.
