Great name ideas were submitted in the comments and in emails to the last post on naming the City of the Future project. After hours and hours of searching, here is a list of the domains that are now registered:
-
UTOPIANT.COM
YOURECO.COM
RENEWABLEPLAN.COM
BUILDOPEN.COM
DREAMGLOBAL.ORG
GLOBALHAB.COM
HABPLANNER.COM
ONEHAB.COM
OURHAB.COM
IDEASOFHUMANITY.COM
IDEASOFHUMANITY.ORG
METROTRUST.COM
MIAPLAN.COM
MIASPHERE.COM
REVOLTIZER.COM
TERRASAY.COM
TERRAVOLVE.COM
Some of the words and fragments that I used to compile this list are: total, Wiki, Eco, Your, Our, My, Open, build, invent, plan, go, trust, hab, itate, itize, ator, topia, lab, geo, root, well, planner, Future, City, Habitat, Vision, Tomorrow, Earth, World, Project, Dream, project, plan, next, Creation, Evolution, Sacrosanct, Clean, Bio, sphere, my, mia, Renewable, Village, Global, Vision, Metro, New, i, beam, day
It would appear that most logical .COM domain names are taken. Is there any name on this list that strikes out as appropriate, or do you have any other suggestions on names? Feedback is not only welcome, but needed. Thanks!
I like something with habitat.
what about posthabitat.com?
Ecolopolis, or Ecopolitan.
Those are more generic names of the City 2.0 or City of the Future, derived from the Megapolitan concept of Virginia Tech.
I like their regional & location based names of the various designated convergent urban + rural ‘megalopolis’ entities.
OT: Of note to VC’s: http://www.ceosforcities.org
Terraton (”Earth town”), or Neopolis. Easy to say & spell, and they ryhme with a lot of good things.
Eco-Tropolis!
Popular Science Magazine has beat us to the public. Please take the time to read this month’s issue. Many of the things we have been writing in this Blog have shown up in this issue, and most of it rendered in lovely graphical detail.
See http://www.popsci.com/ for the basics, and get it at your local newsstand or Library for all the juicy details.
Now, if only we could find VC’s to fund actual construction projects…
