More on com and info or net
Don't worry about what you don't know. Gerald Mann used to do a talk show on TV (doesn't matter if you don't know him, just giving credit) and I loved one of his comments to people in similar situations as you are in now. He said, "Everybody is ignorant. Just on different subjects." So don't feel dumb, you just haven't learned a few things about this stuff, YET.
Another great point that I picked up from Brian Tracy (just credit again) was the fact that no matter who you see who knows a lot about anything, there was a time when they knew nothing at all about it. You are already ahead of where they were then.
As to the .com or .net (or .info), you can easily do a redirect. It is a one click step usually with your hosting or registration set up. You are asked at registration whether you want to "park" your site, or "redirect" or if it will be hosted somewhere. Very easy. You just type in the site you want to come up instead. You experience it a lot when you type in a name and suddenly you look up and see a different address on your computer.
In almost every case I would do exactly what Lisa suggests. However, I think Lisa might agree in looking at your focus, in this case you are looking at a health help site that would really be designed for helping teens talk about cancer issues and get support. Personally in this one case I think I would actually host on the .net or .info and redirect the .com so that the .net or .info would be on the screen. This would leave less of a business image and might help marketing as well. Just my thought. Lisa is welcome to straighten me out.
Good success
