    Potentially it could be a "You see, You be" type pronunciation, but I would think for branding purposes it would be a bit of a strech to use it (I've always thought the letter u was damn ugly). And it has the potential to be pronounced "Uckub" which isn't all that nice either.

    But I've always thought imdb.com was a dodgy sounding name, and that seems to be working out OK. ;) Depends if you can associate any meaning to the abrieviation or not, which is really the hard part.

    It stands for Universal Command Upgrade Board (http://www.tastudios.com/ucub_1.htm) which I don't think really has enough appeal to warrant its own site. :) Perhaps has an alternative meaning in another language that could be more commerically viable.

    Bit of a shot in the dark IMO, but then again it only takes one good idea to kick it off. In terms of sales, I would think that the onus would be on you to "invent" the purpose and sell the idea more than the name.

    Yeah, there aren't many 'exciting' sounding options immediately springing to mind... thanks though.

    anyone else?
