If You Created a Search Engine, What Would You Call It?

Discussion in 'All Other Search Engines' started by BoostSoftware, Mar 20, 2014.

    I'm asking this question, because many of them seem to have funny or unusual names. You think? I haven't thought of one yet, but I will. :)

    It's like the story with Bing. They had 3-4 really cool names to choose from when they were first launching their search engine, yet they stopped on Bing.. I will never, ever say to someone "Just Bing it" or "I'll just Bing it" since it sounds ridiculous.

    I don't know why http://www.find.com/ has this awful site under that name, someone should buy it from them and create and alternative search engine instead.

    So, I'd say Find.com sounds pretty cool.

    That's a swiss tld.

    So you can say "You best search it" instead of 'Just Bing it'

    Name is one thing... Yes. Content is also important!
    An engine with a cool name and crappy content will not make any person happy...
    To create a valuable content for many people... there's got to be either a great corporation such as Apple or Microsoft or if there is a dedicated person out there, s/he must be truly dedicated to the task...!!
    After all, both Bing and Google will be around for a long time and these and others do a pretty good job!

    I created one called WbSrch.com. It was the best name I could come up with that wasn't already taken. It was not my first choice, but it's not too bad.
