Really nice. It was very fast and the couple searches I did gave great results. I'll spread the word. The name is a little hard to remember though.

- okeumeni 18y agoThanks for your feedback. I agree about the name being weird; I lost a coin flip contest to my partner on name choice so I assumed it and getting use to it.
- kyro 18y agoDon't settle on that name because of a coin flip. :P I've looked at that name for a minute now and not only do I not know how to pronounce it, I don't know how I'd tell someone about it without having to spell it out, which makes it very easy to forget. Something like decorefind.com is available. That's easy to remember.
- fallentimes 18y agoI don't know, the name is already notorious... http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=263022 http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=263022
- kyro 18y agoYeah... if you're already being referenced as having a worse brand name than cuil/knol, a name change is necessary.
- okeumeni 18y agoThanks, we’ll definitely work on this.
- pbh101 18y agojust to let you know, there's a very populous county in Ohio named Cuyahoga, pronounced somewhat closely to your name. at first i thought it was a regional search just based on the name. you might want to take that into consideration
- imp 18y agoI live in Cuyahoga County now and I grew up in Cuyahoga Falls, Ohio. Yet, the name never reminded me of the word "Cuyahoga." Weird. I was surprised to see that someone else made that connection.
- pbh101 18y agoChalk that up to: 1) 2004 election 2) the Pretenders' "My City Was Gone" -- which mentions someone coming back to Cuyahoga Falls and seeing her farmtown subsumed by the city. Also, it's Rush Limbaugh's theme song.
- tlrobinson 18y agoThe name reminds of me of Family Guy (Quahog)
- tdoggette 18y agoI concur on the name being-- well, awful. The design, too, is not great. Branding overall, poor. /Product/, though: It's wicked good. Useful, possibly profitable, easy. You could carve out a niche here. Froogle has never achieved dominance in the space, nor has any other product search. Good luck.
