Web While You Wait to partner with WCG in launch of
“Casa de Moi” an innovative internet service for students
Service builds on the underground success of “greatnameforaband.com”
September 1, 2004. Wenham, MA. Whitman Consulting Group (WCG) and Web While you Wait (WWW) on September 15. will launch Casa De Moi – a full-featured private web based communications and storage center designed to affordably give students a secure place on-line for all of their personal and public information. Specifically designed to address the common problems faced by students such as, web mail choked with advertising and the temporary and restrictive nature of university computing systems and policies, Casa De Moi gives students their own private web based communications and storage center, under their own unique web name.
Casa De Moi builds on the underground success of Great name for Band
In late 2003, web users discovered – Great name for a Band – (www.greatnameforaband.com)“Hard enough having to learn an instrument (or, heaven help us, grow some talent) without being required to think up a band name too. Let this site hook you up with the moniker that’ll get the crowds screaming” wrote USA Today Hot Sites (1.22.2004).
Also mentioned in the Miami Herald on-line (2.19.2004) - Great name for a Band has served up over 1 million names to date. Great name for a Band is perfect if you are looking for a guaranteed unique name for your aspiring band – names such as Steel Guitar Zigzagger or Gamet Hat Trick are just the beginning and this site is the final word.
“Great name for a Band is a fun, fresh and very use for all of those words you never thought you would use” said Josh Sostek, Founder and CEO of WWW and also the visionary and owner of the site. “All the good names for websites were taken, and we saw that people were using the cool names created by Great name for a Band as the name for their website – so we made it fun by building Great name for a Site and now setting up your own space is really easy to use with Casa De Moi.”
Enter Casa de Moi
Tired of hosting offers which were unfriendly to non-technical users, Casa de Moi takes the names created at Great name for a site (www.greatnameforasite.com) and makes it simple and inexpensive ($15) to register, and then adds a robust set of on-line features such as e-mail, calendar, music storage, on-line back up for schoolwork to name just a few, Casa de Moi is a natural fit for those who want complete privacy combined with complete access to their information from anywhere they have internet access.“When you think about it makes perfect sense, not only is the name going to be completely unique and cool, but with your own internet place, you never need to worry if your computer gets stolen or crashes – all of your stuff will be safe on-line and you can keep it there forever” said Joel Whitman, founder of WCG which is a partner behind Casa de Moi, “Having your own space is becoming the norm, if you change schools, travel frequently, when you graduate or are uncomfortable backing up your personal information on a school or university network, all of these are great reasons to subscribe to Casa de Moi. You subscribe, you own it, forever”
Casa de Moi (www.casademoi.com) is an innovative twist on traditional hosting
There are a lot of inexpensive choices for hosting and tools for creating websites available, however these are often difficult to use, have limited features and require a certain amount of technology expertise to build and maintain.

Signing up is easy, the configuration tools are very user friendly. If you should need to change or add to the features of your Casa de Moi site and you want to talk to a person, WWW is always interested and available. When it comes down to it the difference is not the technology, it is the service, giving customers confidence as they use the technology.“The whole philosophy behind WWW is to make powerful internet communication tools available to everyday people like you and me ” said Sostek “ capabilities which only a few years ago would have cost thousands in licenses and development time to implement, today are inexpensively available to everyone. At WWW, our business is to put these tools to work for you. The Great name for a site service, now coupled with Casa de Moi is a really fun, useful and easy way to get started.”
