You would have complete rights except for registrant, which will be private, for a 5 year minimum in exchange for small relevant advertising. I'm fair and flexible plus you wouldn't have to pay anything for the domain name. Let me know your thoughts.

I had a really difficult time deciding on a domain from the wealth of ideas here but I eventually plumbed for Calvin's suggestion of lowerfootprint.com It is more generic than James' suggestions while still keeping some of his suggestions around using important words in the title for seo. Thanks everyone - an invite to Fire Eagle has been sent to Calvin. Thanks to everyone for their fantastic suggestions.

The following suggestions are all available: greenireland.net .org or .info ecoblogireland.com .net .org enviroblogireland .com .net .org lowfootprint.net lowerfootprint.com .net .org treadingsoftly.org treadmoresoftly.com .net .org There are probably heaps more... but that will hopefully give you some food for thought. Maybe you could get people to vote on it? Once you have it set up, if you're looking for someone to write the occasional guest post give me a shout. Cheers, Calvin! Hi Tom,
