Get the .biz domain. Those are becoming pretty popular. I personally have a few .biz domains and they're pretty cool.

What's the purpose of the domain? .org are generally for non-profit websites.

I heard that on somewhere, maybe on Godaddy.com you can register three domains (.com,.biz,.org) for just 15$. Not too sure about that though.

They are for organizations, non-profit ones. Generally speaking most are.

I'd get the .biz, but only if you plan on developing it. I wouldn't get a .biz for resale without development plans.
