If you have a space that gives you storage for free (like AT&T that gives you 60 megs or so), you can go to a place like namecheap.com and get a domain name for under $9 per year ($8.88) and that includes free forwarding and free e-mail forwarding. That price includes the .info and .us extensions that others are charging up to $25 a year for without any forwarding.

Forwarding will let you choose a name like dingo.us (though it's not available, so try again) and tell it to send anybody who goes to dingo.us and forward it to some impossible name to remember like

If you get free storage space, it's by far the easiest way to get online with an easy to remember solution.

I started using name cheap about two months ago because I was paying considerably more for forwarding and have had no problems with them. There are many others out there under $10 per year for the name and forwarding.
