    Rule of thumb in the domain world

    If you have to explain why a domain is "good" or what the domain _could_ be used for, it's probably not a good domain.

      Yep, agree, I always love when a domain seller has to keep reiterating that his domain is very "brandable".

        There is both a good reason to do it, and a important reason why you should never forget to do it

              "But, what's it mean?"

Trust me in 5 years we're going to own the internet! Oh and fire Shalack for submitting Google and BoyHowdy, what the fuck is a google anyway?

                  and if you have to capitalize certain parts of it to try to make sense of it it is probably not so great either

                      Unfortunately or fortunately depending on your take, "cool" and "brandable" are what things are moving more and more towards with social media. How many social media site domains make much sense?

                      That said, I usually only bother explaining a name when it's something I'm asking an unusually large price for, which is usually because it's a name that in a different life I'd have developed and become a multi-millionnaire from already.

                                  Yes he is. That is how sad his life is. He has to cheat on postings.
