Want (the startup I work for) is just like Pinterest and we are allowing a community discover and share things that want or like. The difference is that we are solely products. We just rolled out a feature this week that auto-generates store fronts for merchants based upon things that community likes from that store.

Change that name as soon as you can.

I can imagine all the justifications you might have for triplicating the T, but it's not going to stick.

Consumers have demonstrated for a very long stretch of time their dislike of difficult variations of words. Is that two T's or four T's again?

www.wantt.com goes nowhere; and www.wantttt.com redirects to wantist.com. You've got a big problem right there.

I assume you guys are the ones out of Michigan holding the trademark on "want" - but if you're going to keep that name, you should go hustle digimedia and trade your soul to get want.com

It's a crowded space: http://want.it/
Very crowded: http://shopcastr.com/

Shopcastr's focussed on Toronto right now; I work in the same office they do for a different startup.
