Electric Ego
Ok, here comes the swarm of self centered electrons giving rise to this blog. The title Electric Ego did happen instantly though like a spark of idea. I have been thinking of some nice little title for my blog but wasn’t quite happy with the brain-storming process. It was proving hard to come up with a nice name. And then, little did I know that Google would prove such a helping hand.
I searched for some great blog names on google to see how people have been naming their blogs. Stumbled across a few sites throwing advice on how to pick a nice catchy blog name. A few sites even listed some really good blog titles. Like the one http://dustpanalley.com/chatterbox/great-blog-names/ and the one here http://whorechurch.wordpress.com/2007/06/26/great-wordpress-blog-names-450-ideas/. Some bloggers even complained how bad it is to keep a good name (spell misusing a good blog name) unused. Some blamed cyber squatters for Mass registering domain names and therefore limiting options for others in search of a good domain name.
Looks like I am kind of drifting away from main topic. Ok, so here’s how Electric Ego struck and thereby stuck!
I stumbled upon this post eventually http://wordful.com/how-to-name-your-blog-what-makes-a-great-name/. One of the hint was: Make that name stick, make it electric!
The indolent me who had already been fed up of going any further with the blogs thought it would be a nice idea to mix my ego with the word electric giving way to Electric Ego. The tagline wasn’t that hard to guess afterwards.
I don’t know whether it is a good idea for a nice catchy blog title. The thing that matters is it sounds kind of nice (at least to myself!).
By the way, Is it a good one? Your comments may perhaps tell. You won’t comment until the blog gets popular, will you? Let me get this blog a bit popular then!

I like the name and am pleased to see you not only read but used my blog post to help name your blog! The only thing I’d like to know is what your intentions are and what sort of readers you are writing for. Congrats on starting your own blog.

Thanks Charles! Pleasantly surprised to see your comment on the blog in a matter of few hours. You can see how helpful your blog has proved.
I’d mainly be blogging about things that intrigue me (oh just another wordpress blog!). Plus since I am into Information security and Internet marketing, the readers will see a bit of both streams. Didn’t give much thought to the intended audience yet. I hope it’ll shape up well and fit itself into a niche.
