I want to create a website surrounding topic of Portable Media Center.

Since this is like a portable jukebox as well as a portable theater and a portable photo album. I was trying to figure out for the longest time the right name for the site. So, I was wondering if you guys have any good tips at picking a good name.

If you cannot find a good name with keywords try to build a brand.

Make up your own word as it relates to your company. Only choose a name that has the dotcom available.

I find names all the time that are available - you can too. It just takes work.

My suggestion is to build a brand.. better than mixing keywords, sounds cheap (and spammy) today..

portablemc.com? In my opinion, that doesn't have the mojo! how about portap.com...that rocks...I will require a 15% finders fee for that domain name. In fact...I have already registered the domain name...yikes my credit card is burning tonight! If you need more ideas then just sticky me!

How about horrible-tech-ideas.com?

You could put the PMC next to WebTV, the NGage, Microsoft's BOB, the 3DO, and the Jaguar (the videogame system, not the car). I seriously think that you'll find those particular products going in that direction, if you're talking about the "iPod killers" that I heard about a few weeks ago.

In all seriousness, though, you might want to find a tech trend thats a bit more likely to take off, the PMC's seem too expensive to be widely successful.
