With Cloud Computing becoming the next big thing, I thought this would be a great short cloud name

CloudCo = Cloud Company
CloudCo = Cloud Computing

The same person has owned it since 1997 and has run several business using the name over this period.

Any thoughts or comments?? (I own the .net as well)


Thanks all

catchy! but is cloud computing hype? won't Google and Yahoo sign every business up first? the future is a hard thing to predict.

Thanks Bionic

If you read about it, you will see its not hype, its already being used and growing fast. Dell Computers owns all the nice names (CloudComputing.com etc)

Appreciate your comments

You could start with an email attachment host, something simple, Google docs does this.

It's interesting but whether small players will stand a chance or whether it's centralized to a single site we have yet to see.

I'm sure a savvy buyer will come along but reseller market would be difficult to raise much interest at this point.

C'mon that's unfair to lable a domain with .COM attached.

It's CLOUD CO!

But I see where you're coming from about stiff competition.

If it were cloudcomputing.com I'd say "awesome".

I like it.

Agreed about finding an end user though. Reseller market wouldn't want it.

I own localcloud.com and have been approached recently about it by a well known company. I have buycloud.com too. I have read about cloud stuff..
But companies like Amazon etc are going cloud so...looks like something thats here to stay!
