If it was a really good name I would indeed consider buying it from someone.

getting a page not found is no garuantee that name is not taken, the only way to be sure is to use somewhere like http://www.godaddy.com/gdshop/default.asp and search as if you were going to buy it

Nice one Dan... as you know my computer noob status lets me down.... indeed the one i suggested www.4wheels.com is taken
This domain is NOT Available
However, you can backorder this domain for just $18.95.
Not that brilliant anyway IMO... still thinking

Here's a few more I thought of:

www.autoeuphoria.net
www.autorapture.net
www.autoecstasy.net

you could use another word in each one instead of 'auto'...but I can't think of any.

Well - as far a he "explanation" for what JW or Jabbasworld means - does there really even need to be one?

I simply let folks know I spend time at jabbasworld or JW for short - and that it's a general enthusiasts site. As to what the name means, I simple say "nufink - is jus a forkin name hey.."

Now for promotional material, it could simply show JW... afterall, I should imagine the Prancing Horse and Charging Bull's will be just as difficult to work into promotional material as the Star Wars theme.

I fear becoming "just a another gas station on the super hiway to oblivion" is sometimes as simple as a name change... unless it is carried out really carefully -- and then of course you can still retain the jabbasworld.com/net names for us old farts that take very poorly to change... and rattle snakes in the lucky dip..

So in that vein jayw.net (which has a mysterious tone about it - and while having no specific meaning could still be the home of an exclusive line of [place exclusive line here]'s) is still up for grabs....

As many ppl here, I don't like those changes.
but instead of using the whole url in a tshort, how about only using JW?
