Taking advantage of you everyday.

This is named in pretty bad taste if you think about it. :(

Beware the awkward silent letters.

Fauxto

Fauxto name

How do you pronounce Fauxto?

fox-two? foe-two? Oh, it's just pronounced "photo".

While I'm pretty sure that the pronunciation of faux is well known (as in faux pas), it's that "to" sticking out at the end that will throw people off.

Curb your en-Thoof-iasm

Thoof! Just hit my head on the table thinking about this name...


Yeah, I know almost everybody's talked about how bad this name is, but it just has to be mentioned here. Weird names like Yahoo and Google could work, but Thoof is just a nonsense syllable. The name can't be verbed well; if the site does become popular (it looks like a site in the style of digg/del.icio.us), you won't hear people saying "Thoof this!" or "If you like our story, please Thoof us!"
