Very interesting idea. Congrats on the launch. Usually I'd say names don't matter much, but in this case not only is your name terrible, you are taking it too

Very interesting idea. Congrats on the launch.
Usually I'd say names don't matter much, but in this case not only is your name terrible, you are taking it too far by using words like Zombs, launcher, catcher. The whole concept is novel enough, you don't want people to learn a whole new Zombie lexicon just to understand what the heck your site is about.
I'd rather just borrow terminology from elance, odesk, etc.
Other available names: ososci.com, outsosci.com, researchoid.com, fineeinstein.com...
- binarymax 16y agoAlong the same lines, I had to search for a minute just to figure out how much a 'Quan' is. Why not just make it USD or Euros?
- tren 16y agoThese questions about terminology have been contentious issue since the beginning. I agree quan is the furthest from what it actually represents and needs to be changed. The others, launcher, catcher are a small leap, but not too far from what they represent. At the moment, nothing is set in stone and on the other side of the coin, if the terminology is one the greatest detractions, it is one of the easiest things to change. Thanks for the other name suggestions
- revorad 16y agoThe question is why do you want people to take leaps, small or big, in things which don't matter? Outsourcing research is a pretty big leap of faith, better focus on convincing people on that one. Do you have an email address I can write to you at? I'd like to discuss some collaboration options if you are interested.
