This
business is a revival of a previous idea that was called AllAdvantage.
Well that wasn't the shortest or cutest name for a communcal
site that wants to pay you to allow people to track your internet
habits. But at least it didn't sound like crazy farmer. What
will the Aggies at Texas A & M or UC Davis be thinking?
Has no one stopped in the middle of a mouthful at El Pollo Loco
to think the name means crazy chicken?
Maybe
they know most consumers think they must be loco to allow our
web habits to be publicly tracked, even if we do get web credits
for it.
Ok,
we know (now that we have researched it), that this name is
derived from A Global Community, but that is all lost in the
resulting abbreviations.
Coined names are always pronounced the way that would be normal
in the user's major native language. While Angloco gets pronounced
Anglo Co, we think Agloco will usually be pronounced Ag Loco.
The
green logo helps tie the name to agriculture too. Is it a temporary
name or will they be filing for a registered trademark on this
one someday? At least it is not likely to run into many legal
problems.
