On first reading it this morning I was fairly cool on Netcodes, but I've been warming to is since, both from your rationale and intuitively.

I think Doodats is preferable to Doodads, because it rolls off the tongue more crisply, it will have some meaning a global audience which has never heard of doodads. And for those who know doodads, they will get it also.
K.I.S.S.

Doodats appears to have something going for it, according to your gf and filipina friends' feedback.

OK, I'll stick my neck out and suggest incorporating it into the following combination:

Project = Netcode

Business oriented currency = Codes

Social networking focused currency = Doodats

Anyway, I'm going to let the dust settle, while keeping an eye out for any new names that appear, and wait too for any possible eureka moment to emerge.

No the codes is what works to virally spread the currency unit socially, for the reasons I already explained. This unit can also be used in business. The netgold is focused more on those who are paranoid about the debasement, which isn't the entirety of the business demographic.

And netgold is conceptually what I believe the store-of-value ("tin foil hat", hard money, "sound" money, or anti-central banks) folks such as OROBTC et al and perhaps rpietila want. I think as the global economic collapse accelerates, more investors will be looking for a safe haven in something like gold but with the advantages of crypto. Why would they prefer "Moaneuros" to "networkgold"?

I am also thinking to offer a 3rd currency Doodats that would be really silly and have very high rate of debasement. But I am concerned this could be confusing and dilutive. I need to think more about how it would work from a marketing perspective and I don't have any more time to think about this right now. Need to be coding.

Even your wife thought of Doodads also, so that one definitely has wide appeal, but what does it mean w.r.t. to internet money? I need to apply more marketing analysis on it.

Let's try to wrap this up folks. Please.

Please post rationale as to why Netcodes is problemmatic. Else I must assume there is no rationality.

Perhaps "problematic" votes represent a dissonance (dissatisfaction) between the types of names that cause speculators to wet their pants and pump up a copycoin and the type of name that would have a long-term user adoption focus? Hopefully those voters can enlighten me on their perspective.
