"The first girl hired by the founders, she's responsible for renaming the vision once known as "cheapdrinks.com" to the much swankier The City Swig."

I'm going to have to say that I think "cheapdrinks.com" is a better name for this service.

We're not about cheap drinks, that's just step one. We're going to be about recommendations for drinks, social night planning, and flash deals for bars. The change from "cheapdrinks" to "The City Swig" reflects the change in vision from a cheap drinks site to this broader experience we're trying to bring to our users.

I can totally see your point though!

I see the city's wig when I read this. Swig, while being a great word, is not something I think of immediately. Kind of like Pen Island.

but have you seen the current landing page of http://cheapdrinks.com? we can't compete!

This may be a case where paying a buttload of money for a domain name will get you a buttload of velocity. Who needs an easy to remember domain name more than drunk people?

That was my reasoning when I purchased http://www.moredrunk.com - that and it was ridiculously cheap.

I've always like the name of this Australian service: http://www.thehappiesthour.com/
