Makezine.com is easy to remember, but sound.sky.walk.car.mysteryrobot.com sounds cooler when you use Nambers. A namber is part name and part number. Each number between 0 and 255 has a namber. For example, 1 is fun and 213 is star. I really like this idea, the nambers are simple words that represent the DNS of your site. It would be neat to make little hieroglyphics Stargate style so you could get to a site with a big pictogram dialer. Or for kids, a "see and say" web browser.
