Have you ever walked through the woods or on the beach and picked up something that caught your eye and belonged to nobody? Perhaps it was a copper trinket or an ornament that you wanted to clean up because it struck you as being so unique. Then, you discovered that what you had was actually made with gold and worth 20 times more than you thought it was! Me neither, but just hold that thought.
A while back I thought it would be fun to make a clone of a fun site, lmgtfy.com because it looked so easy to do and might go viral too. I managed to grab lmdtfy.com thinking I'd create a copycat site based on an acronym of "let me do this for you" but I never got around to do that although I held on to that domain name with the intention of following up on the idea. A while later I started toying with the idea of making a meme site. I looked at one of the most successful ones and the name was icanhazcheezburgerblahblah blah and I was truly amazed that people could remember how to type that domain name. Another meme generator site is memegenerator.com which is a pain to type out and many people would probably misspell it and what's worse some would KNOW that they would misspell it and so in some cases might not even feel like typing it out. Not the case with lmdtfy once someone knows the phrase.
So as you can probably imagine, it's a hell of a lot easier and faster to type this domain out which would be a critical factor in making the meme site go viral once someone takes the domain name and just pops a script on there. I'm asking $100 for my virtual gold trinket.
