Hi dnparks:

*I'm* interested! As are, I'm sure, other researchers. 

Please tell us more about your services/business and we'll all try
suggesting new names for you. Perhaps you could pick the one you like
the most and that researcher could claim the $75.

To start, I weigh in with:

* iMorse - In honour of Samuel Morse of telegraph (the first
electronic communication) fame. ("eMorse" sounds too much like
remorse.)

Once you tell us more about your services, perhaps we can come up with more ideas.

Dear dnparks,


I suggest Xanadu Mail or Xanadu Communications as an attractive and 
memorable name for your business. The domain names XanaduMail.com and
XanaduComm.com are both currently available.

As a back story, you can remind customers of the famous poem "Kubla Khan"
by Samuel Taylor Coleridge, which begins with the following verse.
    
    In Xanadu did Kubla Khan 
    A stately pleasure-dome decree:
    Where Alph, the sacred river, ran
    Through caverns measureless to man
        Down to a sunless sea.

Kubla Khan was of course a great Mongol ruler, and the Mongols were the
foremost long-distance communicators of medieval times. With hundreds of
stables strategically located throughout the Eurasian continent, their
pony messengers traveled from the Far East to Europe in ten days. This
was a remarkable feat in a time when conventional travel between different
corners of Europe alone took weeks or months.


Another possibility is Mercury Mail Consulting. The domain names
MercuryMailConsulting.com and MercuryConsulting.biz are still
available. Mercury is the swift Roman deity who is usually depicted with
a winged helmet and winged boots, for he was messenger to the gods. He 
was also revered as the patron god of commerce and profit, which can
only be auspicious for your customers.


Finally, let me suggest Black Penny Consulting. The domain names
blackpennyconsulting.com, blackpennymail.com, and blackpenny.biz are
available at the moment. This striking name harkens back to the Black 
Penny stamp, also known as the Penny Black, which was the first stamp
ever issued. Although the Royal Mail had existed in England since 1516,
the introduction of the stamp meant that henceforth it was the sender 
who paid for postage rather than the recipient.


It has been an interesting challenge to address this question on your
behalf. If you find fault with my answer, please advise me through a
Clarification Request so that I have the chance to fully meet your needs
before you rate my answer.

Regards,

I was very dissapointed in your response...not specifically in regards
to content but by shear fact that I asked anyone interested to express
their interest and that I would provide more details as to what we
will be doing...you didn't do this and the rate was charged for a full
answer which (because of your lack of following the request
instructions) is not acceptble

I am sorry you are disappointed. I do wish to provide complete
satisfaction. Please go ahead and give me the details so that I may
respond with appropriate suggestions.
