But that can't be entirely true, or else Canva wouldn't have purchased draw.ing in the first place, they'd just stick with Canva.com.

The whole reason these TLDs are desirable is because they create easy-to-remember addresses.




I wonder if they will use these almost like we use file extensions on a desktop OS. Something like draw.ing/1234 would be a link to share are Canva drawing, kind of like 1234.psd tells you a file is a Photoshop document.

Though using canva.com/1234 still makes more sense, from a branding point of view. Draw.ing vs draw.io will being confusing, especially if company names aren’t changing.

Go.ing I get. That one just makes sense, but is ultimately pointless when they already have going.com.
