About the name...

Update #6 · Feb 7, 2012 · 11 comments

Just to give you a quick update, we have engaged the services of a professional consultant about the final naming of the product. We want to make sure that we are doing the right thing from a branding standpoint. Stay tuned, we should have an update next week.

      Clear Type would be better, but the royalty paid to Microsoft would be astronomical.

      Callum - just because he got 3x more, doesn't mean he has 100% more funds, he has 3x more products to deliver. I've dealt with online domain name hawkers before, you're better off shrugging them off, use something else.
      Then they come begging at 1/10th the price a month or so later.

      To be honest, I think these guys are doing EXACTLY what they should be doing with the extra money! They are being diligent and looking at the long term.... and if they thought Clear Touch made goof business sense I have a feeling they would not have given this a second thought. Let them do their jobs now and treat the project with the stewardship they are showing!
      PS. There are NO investors in this project! Only Pledgers! We pledged to support these guys.... and they pledged to do their best....let them!

      To be honest, Clear Touch is without a doubt the best name for the product, and getting the domain name should not be stopped by something like $50k. You asked for a $50k investment, you got close to 3x that, you should be dipping into that extra amount to get the domain name.

      As an investor in your product, I suggest you re-consider your position on the domain name, Clear Touch is a winner, TransluSense doesn't translate to me.

      Gah... That, of course, should read "chose" (not "choose")

      @Luke... I kinda like the name I choose too... Funny how that works.. :-)
      (And before I submitted it, I did some research, and the domain names seem to be pretty wide open. That's why I didn't choose the other name (the one they selected...) What do they say? Always a bridesmaid... Ha!

      By the way, do we have an eta yet, on when production will kick off? I'm not trying to be pushy, and I'm just a bit anxious...
