No, no domain name yet. Why do you ask?

• chaostheory 19y ago
  b/c if you don't grab it now (unless you were thinking to launching with a different name) someone else will grab it (especially if there's a jerk reading your post on yc news - hopefully not) Being open with ideas is fine, b/c execution of an idea is hard (even with "easy" ideas). Grabbing a domain name or even trademarking a name is a lot easier.

    Yeah, it's a really bad idea to post an unregistered domain name in a public forum. Grab it right now, you can get the .net and .org later. www.namecheap.com is my registrar of choice, $8.88 a year with free WhoisGuard (anonymizes your whois information in a way that won't allow someone to steal your domain).

      That is a good deal. I'll use that in the future. I'd say there's only say, a 20% chance I'd want to use that name, and then there's only say a 30% chance I'll do this idea, so I'm not sure if I'll buy it just yet.

        It's worth paying the extra $.89 over GoDaddy just because the checkout process isn't painful.
