First of all I think this is awesome! But my question is, the system looks ready...If I pay now, why do I have to wait till April?
dETAIL··on Review my startup - Lean Domain Search: The fastest way to find a domain name
Great job and super fast results.

It's great to have tons of inputs and tons of results, but we need a tool to get all these great results into a funnel that at the end you can easily spot a great name.

Suggestions:

1) Modifiers to minimize results like max chars in the domain name.

2) Take the word or phrase the person typed in and throw it into reverse dictionary [1] and then take those results and re-run them through your site (ditto for thesaurus.com).

3) Option to remove a result when one word ends and another starts with the same letter and try reversing to see if available (ie ramppart.com).

4) Option to include tons of different mythology dictionaries [2] and include names where definitions include the user's inputed word/phrase.

dETAIL··on Ask HN: Are Herman Miller Aerons worth the money?
Definitely worth it. The best write up I've seen explaining the pro's and con's of an Aeron is here: <http://www.amazon.com/review/R1MUWGLPM341EB/ref=cm_cr_dp_per...;

I was also doing this research and definitely Aeron is the way to go. My other chair after sitting in it for hours caused my lower back to hurt. If you sit for hours on end working like most of us here, Aeron is the only choice.

Like Staunch said, make sure to get the lower lumbar support "Pad" not the "PostureFit" option. The above link explains why PostureFit is more or less useless even though it is a few bucks cheaper.

Hope that helps!
