Choosing the right domain

Hi everyone (first post here!),

I'm looking to start a new site, yet am unsure about what to do with the name and the domain.

I'm thinking of a .net domain, with two words seperated by a hyphen. However, this won't be as easy/nice as something like daniweb.com. But would I be better off getting a .com?

Also, with the area being media/digital type thoughts (I've written about 300 articles/blog entries on my current site which I would carry over), I'm not sure whether to come up with a funky or interesting name, or get something which relates to the subject. Trouble is, anything with 'digital' in the domain and people think it's a rip-off of another big website. It'll be mostly news/blog type things and maybe a forum later on.

Thanks for any thoughts!
