Fukime, Leaky and now "Munch On Me"?

Seriously? Is there a way to have a "ask your mom/dad/sister/girlfriend/wife what they think of your name" class before domains are registered?

Branding matters.



A name with a hint of the controversial or scandalous can be more memorable and therefore be helpful.

Any emotional reaction in a potential customer, whether mirth or indignation, is a lot more valuable to a startup than obscurity.


Now that you've mentioned this fact, I'm more interested in trying out these services.


Kind of how I remember the name Shwowp for how horrible it is, but have to Google "tara hunts startup" to find Buyosphere.


And you are not my parents or grandparents.


well yes, fukime wasn't so good

edit: I'm affliated with Fukime


I thought Fukime was great!
