Hi Folks,
I just purchased www.linuxbowl.com. I thought it would be fun to have it...
or ironic since I'm not really into football. So; the question is what do I
do with it!? I'd love to make it a community project since I'm already
strapped for extra time. Shoot me some of your ideas and let's see what
sticks!

You may have something there. A web site for new cooked up ideas for new linux projects or
recipes for solving common linux problems?

Brings a new meaning to "bit crunching", doesn't it?

Ahh! I'd looked up Rose Bowl before posting, but the Wikipedia page
didn't have that info directly. Now I feel I've learned something :-)

Ah, you folks are awesome. I love the community. Some really good, bad,
and funny ideas for the domain name. Keep 'em coming and we'll make
something of this silly purchase yet! Personally; I like the news bit,
competitive ideas, linux-related ads. All good ideas, but sounds like a lot
of work too. :D

I'm not sure what "bowl" and football have to do with each other? The
amphitheatre shape of the field? Must be an American thing... "Bowl"
makes me think of 10 pin bowling, or lawn bowls. ;-)
I always thought it had something to do with the trophy (viz. FA Cup,
Ashes, etc.) but I speak from the vantage point of complete ignorance.

From Wikipedia: Bowl game ...The term "bowl" originated from the Rose
Bowl Stadium, site of the first post-season college football games. The
Rose Bowl stadium takes its name and bowl-shaped design from the Yale
Bowl, the prototype of many football stadiums in the United States...

The first thing that came to my mind was the the old College Bowl game show:

Even though I'm an American....the first thing I connected with "bowl"
was cooking. As in soup bowl, bowl of fruit. I suppose if I were going
to buy a domain to have "fun with" I would have though of an idea first
and then when out and bought a name that fits the idea....
