Without millions to invest, bloggers need every little advantage to be recognised all over the internet ie a name and domain that at least gets people on the right track without too much thinking has to be a way to go, I think.

MeAndMyDrum seems to me to be a good example of a thought provoking or sticky name that would register in your mind. Whether the masses are savvy enough to associate it with bang /beat my drum and what that entails, I dont know. But if they do, you saved yourself a lot of money!

In truth, my blog’s name, MeAndMyDrum most likely conjures up thoughts of, oh, I don’t know…drums! But it’s nothing of the sort. When you get to my blog though and read a little about it, I think the meaning of the name becomes clear in that it’s a way for me to send out information and making its presence known — like banging a drum.

Take, for example, Yahoo!. Where would they be if they weren’t so good at branding?

@Carolyn – I did a series of blog interrogations and most people wouldn’t consider a change of name whatever happened. Blogs are personal by their nature, and people change over time so it is understandable that most of us will stick with the original name.

@Chrisblogging – thanks, you have impeccable taste.

@Malin – If a site is PR5 why try to fix what isnt exactly broken?

@Chris – you wrote what everyone else was thinking.

My mouse was poised and ready to click….
