Bye Bye Domain Names #5

A few more domains from the depths of my imagination. As always, if you have interest, or know someone who may be interested, drop me a line.

UniversityOfRock.com
- I originally conceived of this as a concert series that would go from campus to campus. It would be like the Vans Warp tour meets Another Roadside Attraction. When School of Rock came out with Jack Black, it made me think this was even cooler as an idea, but it never materialized. Good name for a music program, a band, a concert series or a record label.
PictureLingo.com
,
LingoPix.com
- The idea with these two (yes I registered multiple domains for this idea) was to create a simple interface for smartphones, completely web-based, that would allow someone in another country (or another part of our country) to communicate. Say you have no idea what language someone speaks, but you need to communicate, you type a word, and a picture appears. That was the plan anyway.
BirthdayPoints.com
,
ChristmasPoints.com
- Pretty simple rewards currency system. The idea was you would buy 'points' for someone like a child or spouse. They would go online to redeem via an amazon-powered merchandise machine. Money would come from breakage on the points purchased but never redeemed, the float of the purchase from the time the points are bought to the time they're redeemed, the margin on the products purchased, and a small affiliate commission from the web interface. Sounds great doesn't it?

So of all of those domains are interesting, but I think the points ones have the most potential. If only I had $100k and some free time!
