Domain names - 28 August, 2007
Ati says
With the new project to reboot Shuzak as a new and improved website, and to try to salvage the existing community, we have run into the problem of the domain name.

The following are a few definitely available (as of this posting) suggestions of mine. Feel free to suggest your own!

www.intellectualcoffee.com

www.prometheusmistake.com

www.monkeyswithfire.com

www.raptureofthenerds.com


Any other ideas are greatly appreciated.

If he's a nice guy, maybe we can buy it from him...

So far, these sound awesome:

www.intellectualcoffee.com

brains.com

www.terminatorslinky.com

So far, intellectualcoffee and terminatorslinky are tied at 3 to 3 votes.

Anyone want to make a tie breaker?

We might want to hurry before someone else buys one of them.

Quantumbeep has pointed out that terminatorslinky is composed of two seperate trademarks, so that one's out.

That would seem to leave intellectualcoffee.com as the most popular viable choice. Anyone have any objections? If not, we can buy the domain tonight.

It's been a long time since I was last on Shuzak but I do miss it. I would love to see it rebooted, and I'd like to help in anyway I can.

P.S. I like intellectualcoffee

Excellent, we need everyone we can get.

What sorts of things are you best at?

intellectualcoffee.com could be shortened to intellecafe.com or even intelcafe.com.

Other ideas:

brainbranded.com
collabcafe.com
mindnetwork.com
paralleldiversity.com

@Ati: I know what I am good at, making timing wonderful (development), maybe when I get back in March from boot camp, I'll be set, but by then you'll have a team assembled

I like some of those Greg, but I think we should stick with intellectual coffee for the time, unless anyone really likes any of these.

meh, im not inspired by intellectual coffee. im giving it a minus vote.

I'm sort of not so much into Intellectual Coffee, either. It's an awkward construction and "intellectual" infers a promise of a certain type content. It's also has what we in the biz call the "Classy Lady" problem. A woman wearing a t-shirt that reads "Classy Lady" is usually not.

That said, I do like monkeyswithfire and raptureofthenerds.com. Perhaps nerdrapture would be more succinct.

Rapture has bizarro religious connotations. Change my vote to monkeys with fire.

Just one more wee thought. Democracy doesn't usually foster effective branding. Visionary fascists generally do a better job. Ati, I'm perfectly comfortable being told to go to hell in regard of the naming of the site.

You've got a point...

'Nazi' does have a certain brand-name ring to it...

In all seriousness though, I think I agree with you that intellectualcoffee has some issues.

Since monkeyswithfire is now in the lead, I'll see what I cna do about a logo mockup.

Hmm, I'm having a little trouble making a logo.

Anyone want to volunteer to give 'moneys with fire' a shot?

i think i'll take the dumb-guy role, saying that i actually like shuzak as the domain name!
Please dont hurt me...

Yup, I like shuzak too.

But monkeyswithfire is also great and would lend itself to a cool logo in the hands of a talented graphics dude.
