I am currently a PHP developer at Gradwell having graduated in 2011 from The University of Bath with a degree in Computer Science with Mathematics.
My interest in programming lies largely within the areas of web development and mobile app development (in particular Android), but also spreads more generally. Linked with this is my more general interest in technology.
I also have a huge interest in Theme Parks & Rollercoasters. I also enjoy working 'backstage' in theatres and at live music events. Beyond these interests, I enjoy spending the rest of my spare time playing around with some photography.
Last week I was contemplating rushing out and buying a couple of .com domain names ahead of the price rise. These domain names would be used for the other few blogs I want to set up.
I tweeted my thoughts on Twitter and got one reply back:
It made me realise that I was more than likely going to end up with something I wasn’t completely happy with, all for the sake of saving a few pence (which is nothing considering the domains I have purchased but haven’t done anything with yet).
I held off in the end. All I need now is a flash of inspiration for a good name.
As for my other blogs, the only reason they’re not live yet is that I can’t think of a good enough name with the domain available (I’m trying to get .com’s but will look at others if need be). This is a big enough hold up to the point that I have some posts ready to go, I just don’t have the blog yet.
So if you do have any ideas on a name for a Theme Park Blog or Development Blog (these are the next two I want to role out). Then, leave your ideas in the comments, drop me an email, or message me on twitter.
Out of interest, do you think I should be aiming for a .com address? Or do you feel it doesn’t matter as much in the age of search engines and twitter?
