Missed Google Name Opportunities

Google got it right with Froogle (the site for searching for the least expensive products), but missed the opportunity with news, creating news.google.com instead of noogle. Here is my list of proposed names for sites Google could run:

  • Google: the general search site
  • Froogle: for searching for the lowest cost on items
  • Whoogle: for searching for people
  • Noogle: for searching news
  • Screwgle: for searching porn
  • Boogle: for searching for scary things
  • Toolgle: for searching for tools
  • Poogle: for finding the closest bathroom
  • Loogle: for searching legal (or finding the closest bathroom in England)
  • Roogle: for finding small kangaroos
  • Moogle: for searching money (or finding lost cows)
  • Vousgle: the French site for finding everything about you
  • Zoogle: search the local animal park
