With the new project to reboot Shuzak as a new and improved website, and to try to salvage the existing community, we have run into the problem of the domain name. The following are a few definitely available (as of this posting) suggestions of mine. Feel free to suggest your own! www.intellectualcoffee.com www.prometheusmistake.com www.monkeyswithfire.com www.raptureofthenerds.com Any other ideas are greatly appreciated. |

So far, these sound awesome: www.intellectualcoffee.com brains.com www.terminatorslinky.com |

So far, intellectualcoffee and terminatorslinky are tied at 3 to 3 votes. Anyone want to make a tie breaker? We might want to hurry before someone else buys one of them. |

Quantumbeep has pointed out that terminatorslinky is composed of two seperate trademarks, so that one's out. That would seem to leave intellectualcoffee.com as the most popular viable choice. Anyone have any objections? If not, we can buy the domain tonight. |

It's been a long time since I was last on Shuzak but I do miss it. I would love to see it rebooted, and I'd like to help in anyway I can. P.S. I like intellectualcoffee |

intellectualcoffee.com could be shortened to intellecafe.com or even intelcafe.com. Other ideas: brainbranded.com collabcafe.com mindnetwork.com paralleldiversity.com @Ati: I know what I am good at, making timing wonderful (development), maybe when I get back in March from boot camp, I'll be set, but by then you'll have a team assembled Email me with more information as it comes along? pirana0[at]gmail[dot]com |

I'm sort of not so much into Intellectual Coffee, either. It's an awkward construction and "intellectual" infers a promise of a certain type content. It's also has what we in the biz call the "Classy Lady" problem. A woman wearing a t-shirt that reads "Classy Lady" is usually not. | |||||

Rapture has bizarro religious connotations. Change my vote to monkeys with fire. Self-depricating humour FTW |

Just one more wee thought. Democracy doesn't usually foster effective branding. Visionary fascists generally do a better job. Ati, I'm perfectly comfortable being told to go to hell in regard of the naming of the site. | |||||

You've got a point... 'Nazi' does have a certain brand-name ring to it... |

In all seriousness though, I think I agree with you that intellectualcoffee has some issues. Since monkeyswithfire is now in the lead, I'll see what I cna do about a logo mockup. |

Yup, I like shuzak too. But monkeyswithfire is also great and would lend itself to a cool logo in the hands of a talented graphics dude. |
