Big news: We spent $400,000 on a web domain. Support Shepherd is now Somewhere. Turns out nobody can remember Support Shepherd, it doesn't make a lot of sense, and even really smart people spell it incorrectly over and over. Hiring top 1% talent all over the world to save…

@sweatystartup Yessss Nick! People will read this and think you're blowing your money on a $400k domain. "But you could have got the .co or .xyz for wayyy less". But people still sleep on top tier dotcoms. Usually the payback period is <12 months.

@sweatystartup This video is OUTSTANDING. Yes it's an ad for Somewhere, but it's really an ad for people. The brand positioning is killer - just showcase the people. Is there a permalink to this video outside of Twitter somewhere?

@thesamparr My domain is now more expensive than the house I live in. Good sign or bad?
