I recently read a blog post from Paul Graham titled, "Change Your Name." He suggests that "if you have a US startup called X and you don't have x.com, you should probably change your name."

It seems like domain squatting / speculating is the driving force behind goofy startup names, and maybe its time to just start using other TLDs. Anyway: What do you think about domain squatting and startup names Sam?
