Why have you copied my idea? I came up with the idea of a site to help with homework, and you have just slightly adapted it! I am not happy :(
I hope you enjoy being my competitor, but your site sounds too similiar to Yahoo! Answers? There are is a lot of competition for a site of that theme. I think you should call it: www.answers2u.co.uk
Best of luck with the site, Carrotnapper :)

Thumbs up

I think you should choose a memorable non-descriptive name with some personality. Descriptive names can get so generic. A few examples of non-descriptive names would be amazon, google, yahoo.
No offense to carrotnapper and toons but names like answers2u or designanswers or questions-answered, etc. don't entice people to visit your site. Choosing a name is one of the most important marketing decisions you will make.

agreed but kewords in url's weigh heavy in SE rankings. Unless you're looking to build a site the size of google yahoo etc. Keywords could be important. I thought about giving this forum a unique memerable name in flikr style context but at the end of the day competing with many others I had to go for a keyword rich url.
