One of the main advantages of starting a new company in Eastern Europe is the natural affinity of this part of the world with Web 2.0. More specifically the complete lack of vowels. While most start-ups struggle to find a catchy name, I can open some local newspaper and pick one.
I guess this is why so many entrepreneurs opt for Czech names: Dopplr (the new social network for frequent travelers) stands for “Your flight will be delayed” in Czech and wdgtbldr (Peter Yared‘s new company) translates as “JRad 3.0″ in Czech (and Polish, Slovak and Croatian).
I thought long and hard about the name for my next company and I was not sure whether to call it Datr.com or Zetr.com. But then I came up with a non-Web 2.0 name with plenty of vowels. And therefore as of today I’ve become the Founder and CEO of Good Data Corporation.

Systinet was a great fun!
First three letters are same as Google.. I wish you similar success!
Web 2.0 went down in flames at OSCON anyway – so you are ahead of the curve. Good name.
Good luck, Roman. Nice name…
Are you sure that I can’t steal this name as well? Maybe for JRad 4.0…
Roman,
I wish you all the best.
You’ll succeed again in what you are doing. You’ll move things forward. That’s cool.
