Right now the site lives at a temporary web address, and I'd like to move it to a permanent one that's easy to remember. Before I pick, I want to hear what you all think.
I checked availability on a batch of names that fit the group. As of today, all of these are available to register:
Bellingham 550 — bellingham550.net · bellingham550.com · bellingham550.org · bellingham550.us
Shorter (BEL 550) — bel550.com · bel550.net · bel550.org
Group / area names — whatcomgmrs.org · whatcomgmrs.com · bellinghamgmrs.org · bellinghamgmrs.com
A couple of things to weigh in on:
— Which name? The full "bellingham550," the short "bel550," or something with "GMRS" in it?
— Which ending? ".com" is the most familiar; ".org" reads as a community group; ".net" is a nice fit for a network of radio folks.
My leaning is something short and memorable like bel550.net or bellingham550.org, but I genuinely want the group's input — this is our home on the web.
Reply with your vote, or suggest a name I haven't listed and I'll check whether it's available. I'll leave this open for a couple of weeks, then we'll go with what the group likes best.
