Stepping in to 2010 – it was time to embrace social media and internet trends. If you’re a fan of tag clouds:
We’ve added tags to the Domain Showcase. The newest addition is “Cool Domains“.
What’s a Cool Domain?
It’s a name which is short and sounds delicious. A cool domain is fresher than Web 2.0, Flickr is so last decade. It has to roll off the tongue and no missing letters for people to forget when typing in the URL.
A cool name must stir a reaction. When you hear Twitter, you think chit chat. When you hear Google, you think God. When you hear Nomzo, you think cool domain 
Generic Domain Vs Cool Domain
Generic domains are great. They offer so many extra perks that cool domains do not. With a generic domain you can take over a market like Warren Royal did with Bobbleheads.com. But generic domains are not cool because cool is new. Cool domains are invented in the minds of the creative, in the souls of the lost, or in the input fields of a domain name generator.
Cool domains resonate with an audience. They intrigue. They stimulate passion. They force you to react!
