-An October, 2012, interview with COO [[Nicolai Bezsonoff]] put the current registration of .co at 1.35 million. [[Sedo]] has reported that .co has the highest average secondary-market price, with the first being [[.com]].

-Taco Bell, a sizeable fast-food restaurant, chose .co upon revamping its website. The company is using ta.co, and while this url currently redirects to tacobell.com, the shorter name is seen as a nod toward mobile users who wish to order customized meals online with as little inconvenience as possible.
