The word sandbox is a very great word and can be understood by many languages and cultures. Formerly know as the place where children play, it became famous after the "Florida update" of Google as the synonym for "poorly listed in search engines".
Now, after around 2 years webmasters want to retire the phrase completly [webmasterworld.com]...
That is sad! I hereby request to form the "Save the sandbox phrase for SEO foundation" - PayPal donations are accepted by your local webmaster...
Further I wanted point out the many possibilities, where you can use the word Sandbox:
"Oh my, that car looks like fresh from the sandbox.."
or
"I have sandboxed that meeting for later"
or
"Darling, could you sandbox some of that delicous food for tonight?"
See, the possibilites are endless... save the sandbox!
Wikipedia has one, PayPal has one (they even call it sophisticated "development" sandbox) and now you want to tell me, we have to go without!
No way!
