We launched a physical product - inspired by the AirBNB cereal box story: The WordBiLLY.

http://www.WordBiLLY.com

What's a WordBiLLY? They are custom-crafted Word Sculptures of your favorite Word/City/Name or Quote. We also make Twitter ID signs - swag for the home and/or office.

We manufacture each BiLLY here in the United States and hand-finish the pieces in our garage before shipping (yes! an American garage company!)

WordBiLLY is a design company focused on creating modern specialty goods in the area of lifestyle products. We are a couple of college seniors at UNCC in Charlotte, NC and we launched this product in the summer of 2012 to pay for our technology startup.

Would love to hear feedback/ product ideas!

The idea was spawned by the fact that so many of us have personal domain names that always get outdated, so we built something that uses content you're already creating to make your personal website looking fresh. Here are a couple sample profiles:

Earlier quoted context omitted.

I've been using your product for awhile now. I love it! Keep up the great work.

Great to hear! If you have any feedback, please let us know. Any killer features missing in your opinion? We have got some big and fun things coming in the next few months.

I can't think of any missing features that we have run into. We have used it mostly for collaborating database designs. Can't wait to see what you guys have in store!

Judging from web traffic, it looks like this post got flagged by HN mods.

"Judging from web traffic", what web traffic? What do you mean?

I was just checking out the realtime traffic to my sites, it was significant for a bit, then it dropped off and the OP's post dropped from the front page.
