Heming Thu, 02 Dec 2004 07:34:20 +0000 /?p=1579#comment-6060 Hi Jeremy Congrats – I love the entrepreneurial spirit. A good name is off course important – but more important is what you put in to it. Your Mom and Dad didn’t now what to “expect” naming you years ago – the “real” value revealed it self over the years. I think the case is the same with Companies. One suggestion – yes, you want to make a blogging company but what is the value proposition? Is it about using the blogging tool or is it about creating alternative space for participative communication? I think that a company name containing “Blog” will constrain you possibilities. But okay – I don’t know what in fact will sell. Please tell me more and I’ll get “creative” NB. In fact I have my own considerations starting a blogging venture my self…;-) Best Regards Hans Henrik Hi Jeremy
