I’m on 25peeps.com.
It was so long ago I filled in the form I forgot all about the site! I think I followed a link there from Derek at 5ThirtyOne, I completed the form and then waited.
The site itself looks quite good and the idea behind it is of course another one of those simple, wish you thought of it, style. The only downside is that unfortunately sex sells, look at the highest ranking ‘peeps’ but then come on be honest did you not click on the clevage only to find out is was some blokes back!

If you are going to join the 25peeps.com community you best off pick a really clever image, think long and hard about what best describes you, you need something that ties up all the different aspects of your online persona. If in doubt just use a picture of a woman in her pants!

During one of those geeky sessions were people get together and chat some one mentioned the word “Interslice” and “Cutco”, these words sounded familiar.

I remembered it was from an episode of Simpsons; Das Bus to be exact. Anyway Homer is trying to set up a new internet company that is catchy. The name Interslice is catchy, so catchy that I can’t shift it so I thought about having a look into the domain name. Interslice.

You what? You expect to get $8,000 just for a name that was mentioned on Simpsons? Fair play to you if you do.
This obviously got me thinking, why not buy up all those catchy names and phases you hear and sell them off when they hit the scenes.
