Good portofolio domain?

    I was looking for a name for an online portofolio because I want to start designing so I registered the name Skeedio.com.
    Will this domain be good for a designing company? If not, any suggestions what I could use this domain for?

    Just found out something about this domain.. there isn't a single search result in Google.. is this a good thing (domain uniqueness)?

    It is easy to remember and brandable. Who had heard of 'google' before it was created?

    Wasn't that Googol or something? I believe Google itself isn't a real word (yet) :)

    Yup. Google was not a word before the search engine came along. Go Skeedio!

    Googol:

    A googol is equal to 10 to the 100th power.
    http://www.arps.org/users/hs/kochn/QR/Glossary.htm

    A googol is the large number 10100, that is, the digit 1 followed by one hundred zeroes. The term was coined in 1938 by nine-year-old Milton Sirotta, nephew of American mathematician Edward Kasner. Kasner announced the concept in his book Mathematics and the Imagination.
    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Googol

    A number that is equal to 1 followed by 100 zeros. Example:10^100
    http://academic.evergreen.edu/curricular/mit2005/mit2004/Lesson Plans/Measurement/Vocabulary.htm

    a cardinal number represented as 1 followed by 100 zeros (ten raised to the power of a hundred)
