    I am sorry, no ideas come to mind for me either :(

    You can build an entertainment site on that, or a science fiction...

    If you really can't find a use, then trade it for something and get something useful in return. :) Choose something from my signature to start with. :)

    It really does sound like a science fiction name. If you just reg'ed it you have a year to play with it.

    Perhaps you can write a story about Xorak the evil warlord who has a super weapon and intends to conquer the universe. The hero finds his plans by coming upon a dying soldier outside a bar while on a stopover on Xorak's planet.

    Before he dies the soldier whispers the code that will render the super weapon useless, but to broadcast the code the hero must gain the trust of the director of the great radio telescope on a nearby asteroid. The director thinks he is nuts and refuses to see him.

    But the director has a daughter.......

    hey - it is a 5 letter pronouncable name. Maybe you can make it stick.

    It's very easy to mis-spell, especially if you say it aloud rather than reading it. Other than that, I think it's not a bad name.

    It's nice and short, and means nothing whatsoever, so it's brandable. You could make it into whatever you want it to be. Personally it reminds me of anoraks.

    Some odd part of a body.....
    Oh, skip it, it is the thorax.

    But really, that domain name can be made into anything you can come up with.

    Look at google.com or yahoo.com

    I would probably list it for sell in all the places I normally list my DNs for sale. Wait a year and if it doesn't sell.. let it expire.

    If your looking to build a site then you should do a sci-fi/fantasy site for sure.
