Help me pick a name please

[SlashRoot.Com]

I have been thinking of creating an Open Source Hackers Resource Forum for the folks that like to hack-away, creating new (hopefully Open Source)code. Kind of like SourceForge, but possibly with a narrow focus on some core (OS kernel, device drivers, etc) programming, etc.

I am thinking of using one of the following names for this new resource forum:

HackerNest.Com
SiteRoot.Net
SiteRoot.Org
SlashBin.Com

What will be your choice out of these four names?

Thought/Suggestions Please!

Thanks much...

SlashRoot

well a few of my gamer friends are proper hackers
eg: the ones who hack for the good like finding bugs and holes etc
not the script kiddies using subzero or whatever its called

which ones are you looking at targetting
if its the scriptkiddies then i have the perfect available domain for you which it a comman term among them
in fact it dropped about 4 days ago
Pm me if you want the domain

i supose slashbin or siteroot.org will do good tough

Thats the crowd I had in mind.

Same thoughts here.

which ones are you looking at targetting

the good guys, not the script kiddies.

Had no intentions of getting into that.
I will PM you just for the curiosity that killed the cat!

i supose slashbin or siteroot.org will do good tough

Thanks for your feedback, DotLeader.

SiteRoot.Org, IMHO.

Appropriate in the ".ORG", as for a "Resource" Forum.
Good Luck with it, Shri.

 

[drifta]

ok then defanently slashbin or siteroot.org

kinda fits the purpose

 

[SlashRoot.Com]

Thanks CH, DotLeader for your insight.

[SlashRoot.Com]

Thanx everyone for your input. Much appreciated.

 

[webmasterinfo]

i think HackerNest.Com is great!

I have HackerDome.com - I forgot about it until reading this thread. You can have it for free if you want.

Wow! Thanks for your offer, Stevek. Nice! I might take you up on that!

So looks like we have now narrowed this down to three options: HackerDom.Com, HackerNest.Com and SiteRoot.Org

Again, the site I plan to create/host using one of these domain names is going to be community service site(SourceForge type), catering to Open Source programmers who hack away the code for the love of it. The good guys, not the script kiddies.

Help me find a winner among these three finalists, Friends!

Thanks, may all your domain dreams come true!

Slashroot.com

I think hacking is awesome but yeah i'm too dum lol

My first impression of hacker domains are people hacking into people's accounts and sites... so I would prefer a nicer sounding domain such as slashbin.com but seeing as how the choices are narrowed down now and .org's aren't really suitable for this type of site, I vote for hackerdom.com. Good luck with your site!

I got a great unregistered name you might like. Kinda safe. Doesn't offend...now just got to find it in my lists of "potentials"...There it is! (actually, I have 2 suggestions):

HackScience.com
HackingScience.com

I was going to reg the first one (and may regret not doing so) but low on funds right now. If I can help a fellow NPer out then that can't be all bad now, can it.

If you decide on one, dropping 25NP$ my way would be appreciated.

Thanks.

Thanks for your suggestions, thoughts, katrina, Cindy, Coastalguy, everyone. GREATLY appreciated.

A lot of good suggestions, but something still just does n't seem to click.

I am still eagerly listening!

hackerdome.com

i would suggest hackerdome.com, it sounds better than the rest of them, but there could be better names out there.

 

[katrina]

hackernest.com

 

[K_atherine]

slash bin.com

 

[Sukey]

hackerdome.com

great name, short and easy to remember! good luck with your hacking domain name search!
