Re: Finding And Buying A Domain Name

This is really helpful food for thought, Fred.

Some background on what April mentioned — the original reason we built Domainr was to help us brainstorm names (and domains) for product ideas we were batting around a few years ago. Settling on a working product name (and home on the web) can be a catalyzing event for a team eager to make progress on their ideas.

Funnily enough, Domainr actually named itself once we built its first prototype. :)

Cheers,
-Eric

We dig it too, Dave!

Shameless plug: our domain search engine (http://domai.nr/) lets you search for available domains like these, which use unicode dingbats and other international (IDN) characters. You can snag them from http://www.copypastecharact... and start tinkering to see what's available.

It'll be fascinating to see the non-ascii domain namespace take off, which I'm hoping it does. Generic TLDs are just tired.

TechCU's been great so far, but we're not yet using it for payroll and merchant stuff. They send/receive ACH which we've done a few times, and it's worked great. So has hooking it up to our own bank accounts so we don't need to write checks to ourselves. Don't have IRA stuff going yet - was hoping to be able to do that through Vanguard (who we used at Google), but we're not quite there yet. ;)

Thanks for posting this, Leonard - I've been meaning to do a similar writeup on our blog. So far we're using LessAccounting - http://lessaccounting.com/ - for tracking money stuff, Google Apps and Dropbox, and Technology Credit Union - http://techcu.com/ - for banking. Still undecided on bug trackers, though I'm leaning toward Lighthouse - http://lighthouseapp.com/

Cheers,

Agreed - I listened to the Audible version a while back and it was riveting. Highly, highly recommended!
