This is great! Thanks for kicking it off, Matthew. Everything looks awesome to me except for the name "Pikia". I get that it's a combination of "Piki" and "Wikia" and that is totally how I'm thinking of the business too, but I'm thinking that it's too similar to Wikia to be used as an actual name. I think something that doesn't appear to ride the coattails of another company, even though that's totally not the intention, would be best; I think we'd be more credible with a name that's unmistakably unique and independent. Just my take.
 
Coming up with a good business name is always a headache though because so much rides on it. So I was thinking we could all use this space to brainstorm names, as like a communal pool of ideas, some good, most bad. So I'm not just some jerk who critiques and doesn't offer alternatives, I'll kick it off with my best shitty ideas. -[[User:Kotra|kotra]] ([[User talk:Kotra|talk]]) 04:52, 21 April 2011 (UTC)
