Testing Company Names with Mechanical Turk
- josephby 14y agoNice; pickydomains is another good site to crowdsource names with available domains. Using Mechanical Turk and Soundcloud to test for "spellability" is brilliant. That said, in an age of omnipresent search, and social distribution, I wonder if spellability is much less important than it was ca. 2000.
- justinwi 14y agoYou'd think so but a good friend of mine (hope he doesn't mind me sharing this) founded Syncplicity. A name I thought was brilliant until I saw him at a networking event: Him: "The company is named Syncplicity" Them: "Simplicity?" Him: "No. SINK-plicity" Them: ??? Him: "We're Dropbox for enterprise" Them: Oh, I love Dropbox!
- josephby 14y agoTouche. :)
- j8hn 14y agoWhich company did you use to register your domains, and how long do you have to return the domains you no longer want?
