Earlier quoted context omitted.

It's yours. E-mail me at [my username]@[my username].co.uk and I'll sort out the auth code and unlock it for you.

I tried emailing you but got a bounce. [petercooper]@[petercooper].co.uk, right? (obviously without braces, ha)

It's funny he seemed to try so hard to avoid writing the email directly, and you did just that.

hogornot.com

Why are you sitting on that? That website would take about 15 hours to build and will most likely earn you more than a few bucks for doing nothing.

If someone finds their way back to this thread, I did end up writing the site.

Granted it took me a more than the 15 hours (more like a part-time week) but the result is up: http://hogornot.com

Is was good to pick up django, jquery etc. It has little content right now but anyway -- it's up!

If you have a domain with something to do with giving recommendations (sharing/favourites/popular), even loosely related (or even so far removed it works) then let me know. I've been struggling with this one.

I have betterized.com and relevnt.com ... not sure what type of recommendations you are looking for, but these could work for the right ones

I know what you mean. I have dozens and dozens of these names, all really good names that I like for startup or related projects. I dont want to give them up becuase, like you, I HATE trying to find new names. I also hate domain squatters, so they arent filled with BS Ad's either, just a brief message saying "this was for a project I was or will be working on... if you are interested, let me know. My list is too long…

I have to ask what thegreatmustachechallenge was.

We were going to grow mustaches and have people bet on who would keep them the longest in public (between my friends its not very sociable to have a stash). All the proceeds were going to go to some charity. I might still do it someday...
