What now?

There is the option of whywentcaping.ru, though it is at a cost of  
$29.99 US. I don't know, I really like those sorts of domains that use  
the [cc]TLD as a part of the name, though sadly, http:// 
whywentcampi.ng/ seems to already be taken (though unused... and..  
nigerian..).

I like .net and .org. :)
