The Idea

The name itself has a ring to it, but someone secured the name the last time I checked.
The concept is to develop a website that carries nearly every concievable bumper sticker including the sites' own (except blantenly rude, distateful, etc.) and have a link to the site that produced the product or author, distributor, etc. It would also allow anyone to create their own with the tools and fonts we provide and/or have one our affiliates design it for a fee.
The name itself (I think) would be great for radio advertisement.

I thought of this idea when I was...

Just thinking while driving to work.

I realize there are other companies doing it, but the name is what i'm wondering. Would it have a radio ring to it.

I was laughing reading your comment. How ridiculous radio ring must sound to everyone. What I was trying to convey was here in America, advertisers are always trying to be creative with their customers' ads. So, I was envisioning "bumpmysticker.com" having the uniqueness and the audible sounds to such as Google or other unique names.
If a creative marketer and advertiser was able to promote this correctly, it could be the top in its field. Just thinking.

Those marketing people, always going around and dictating feature sets and product names so things sell better. Sheesh...

"The name itself has a ring to it, but someone secured the name the last time I checked."

"I realize there are other companies doing it, but the name is what i'm wondering. Would it have a radio ring to it."

These two statements conflict to me. The names already taken... are you looking for help brainstorming up a good name 'cause this is a project you want to pursue?

I have some (somewhat painful) recent experience on finding free domain names in this CH forum thread...

...but what-all you looking for here?

This would fall under the Wikimedia Foundations mission, in theory.

Oh, and I like the idea, a simple business like this is easier to implement, even I don't personally like bumperstickers.

I just checked. Bump Your Sticker .com may be available.

Hey Nickonomics101 & landsky,

It's simple comments like that which can propel the success of others. The world needs more of you and I'm working on it myself.

Thx

Been done by other sites, plus anyone could just use Google to find various bumper stickers.

What's different about your idea than the already existing ones?

I also doubt people in search of bumper stickers are really concerned with aesthetic of a website :)
