Overstock.com purchased the registration rights to secure the iconic,
single-letter domain O.CO and related URLs for $350,000 USD. Once launched,
the O.CO website will carry all of the same products and have the same
features as Overstock.com.

"The O is such an important and recognizable part of our brand," said
Overstock.com Chairman and CEO Patrick Byrne. "In the new era of the
Internet, where short and memorable web addresses are critical for capturing
the attention of mobile and socially connected Internet users, our O.CO web
address will help to reinforce our brand and expand our business among these
audiences."

"Overstock.com's purchase of O.CO is an investment in its future, and it
also speaks to the confidence they have in the credibility and marketability
of the .CO domain," said Juan Diego Calle, CEO of .CO Internet. "As one of
the first U.S. public companies to use its .CO domain to build its global
brand, Overstock.com is further proof that .CO domain names can create a new
world of opportunities for companies and entrepreneurs to brand themselves
online."

.CO Internet will showcase the O.CO website, along with other early
adopters of .CO domains, at www.Opportunity.co.
