I like to think that Whitespace was my “professional” site where I could share my limited amount of wisdom to the world so when thinking of a new domain name I thought it would be cool to play off the word ‘wisdom’ because ‘knowledge’ was too big for me to type (and yes I know they are different). Here are some of the domains I tried to snap up:
- wisdum.com
- wisdumb.com
- wizdum.com
- wizdumb.com
Obviously I wasn’t successful in obtaining any of those so I went with ‘Wisdump’ and I am really happy about the choice simply because the name is stupid. You don’t see the ‘wis’ and all you hear is ‘dump’ which could conjure all types of images for you and therefore keeping it memorable.
To be more humane I get to say that this is the site where I am allowed to dump my knowledge onto the masses with regards to my professional subjects. So welcome to a new beginning and I look forward to pushing this site to new heights without the burden of the 9rules.com weighing me down or MovableType.
So please update your feeds to the new feed and let us get the ball rolling on this site. No it won’t stay in grayscale this was done in just a couple of hours so I will have to find a color scheme appropriate for my dumpage.
