Long or short domain name ??

As u known, domain names can b of any length up to 67 chars. U don't hav to settle for an obscure domain name like ppo.com when wat u mean is PangPuiOng.com.......

Some argue tat shorter domain names r easier to remember, easier to type n less mistakes - for eg, "getit.com" is easier to remember and less prone to typing error than "imthemostpowerfulpeople.com"...

Others argue that a longer domain name is usually easier to understand - for eg, "ilmmh.com" is difficult to remember and type correctly, whereas if we expand it to its long form, "ILoveMyMumHair.com", we are more likely to remember the domain name....

Which would I go for?
I'd go for the shorter name if I can get a meaningful one... However, I would probably avoid extremely long names which combine frm 67 chars.
