What's with all the domains paraphrasing 37signals? Is there some chic trend I'm not aware of?



Well, I'll tell you the story, but it's not that interesting.

I was talking with a friend about the name for a blog. My first conception was a website where I posted lots of tiny bits of code, centered around Web 2.0.

So, lots of little bits of Web 2.0. Hmm, "bit," like bits and bytes. Then I thought of Web 2.0 tropes and came up with 20bits since that was the trend (37signals, 30boxes, 43things, etc.)

And now you know.


How about 2.0bits.com?


I'm with you on this, I would love some reasoning for this.
