“Andrew Busey felt like he had a hot idea for a business: a Web site that sold bookshelves, beds and other furniture. But the name Mr. Busey was using for the company, he knew, was an unequivocal dud. ‘ForMyHome.com didn’t roll off one’s tongue,’ he says. So like dozens of budding Internet entrepreneurs, the 28-year-old Mr. Busey embarked on the increasingly tricky chore of finding a better company name.”

“…Look around. Trust your gut. Don’t just look at other sites or the ‘best of’ books/articles. Use who you are as a person as an influence. Its the only way you can do really individual work-no one else has your upbringing, experiences, parents, etc. if you put more of yourself into the work, you’ll enjoy it more, and, you’ll be doing your best work. Look to unexpected places for influences…”
