question to the founders - how did you get this TREMENDOUS domain name?

  I'd be fascinated to hear this story too. I'd think that domain would be worth more than most ycombinator startups could afford.

    priley must have amazing negotiation skills.

      Or patience. If you linger around domain auction platforms and forums enough and are willing to invest you can get lucky on a relatively consistent basis.

        It was a little of both. ;) Hey... everyone... I just wanted to thank you for all your comments about our new search engine! This community has such great insight and I just really appreciate the support with Ark. It has been an exhausting 45 days of coding and designing, but encouragement like this makes it all worth while.

    The story is actually a great one, and will be told someday. I'll save it for the book that is turned into a movie about how I made Ark just because I wanted to be as cool as a crew guy.
