domain names, web standards, etc

I would just do "mydomian.com."

I guess I have a couple questions;

1. When advertising a domain name, why would I want to
include the 'www' portion? I know the significance of 'www',
but is it really necessary these days? I could see back in the days
when the company had even traffic amongst it's ftp server, etc;
but I fail to see why it is needed. From a recognition standpoint,
I think http://mydomain.com is nicer than www.mydomain.com.
Just curious.

2. Web develpment. I have yet to see a popular, and what most
folks would consider "nice" site that meets w3c standards.
Plug any of them into http://validator.w3.org/ and watch
it throw up all over your screen. Is it possible to meet
and pass the validator, yet keep the marketing dept. happy?
