SupportBuddy is good. But not very professional. I do my best thinking down the pub i'll come back in a few hours and tell ya if i came up with something. Good reason for a piss up :).

Well that's why i suggested TheDesk as in 'Thee Desk'. The only desk. The only desk you'll ever need. It slices, it dices, it unclogs your drains. TheDesk.

kunal
10-31-2000, 04:45 PM
hehehe... ok :) got it :) so "The Desk" it is..if someone can come up with something better or has any other suggestions, click reply button :)

Omni means all. For instance, omnipotent means all powerful, omniscient means sees all. Omnivorous refers to animals that eat all (flesh and plants). If your program does most everything, then Omni might be an appropriate name.

Oh ok.. coool..Thanks Duster, you just gave me a briliant idea... me is gonna call it "Omni Desk" ;)

For what it's worth, I like "The Desk" better than "Omni Desk," if only because the second one is very similar in theme to "Wonder Desk." And even sounds more like it.

"TheDesk.com" is already registered. I am scared it might be TradeMarked. And plus I am in noo mood of going to court. :D

Ok.. so know I have narrowed down the search to 3 names.
1. Web Assistant
2. The Desk
3. Omni Desk


Tell me which one!!! :D

For what it's worth, Web Assistant sounds too vague to me. It could be a tool for creating web pages or some such thing. Names that include "desk" suggest not fully grasping the concept of the Internet, as does "tons of.." There are no desks or weight in cyberspace.

In fact, one of the biggest problems I see with many web sites is people transferring what they know from other media and applying it to the Inertnet and WWW without grasping the inherent differences, much less putting them to work in their benefit.

Of course, what features a product has and how well it works, along with price, are important considerations. Im merely suggesting that you might want to give it a name that doesn't reflect outmoded thinking.

Goodness, this doesn't matter. Virtual help desk. I'm pretty sure everyone can make the connection.

It's a subtle statemnt, I'll grant you, but it is a statement all the same.
