Maybe it's time for the 'competition' to be shaking in their boots :)?

I think maybe they've named it after the current weather. Will be interesting to see how things pan out.

Now's the time to see how dedicated we are to the Geek cause. Are we going to write out '2degrees' every time we type this brand name, or are we going to commit to memory the sequence of keys required to type 2°?

(To get the '°' symbol, hold down ALT and type 248 on your numeric keypad).

Yes, but a logo doesn't have to spell out a name.

Indeed, but a logo can be used to substitute for a name... especially for a geek who likes to use alt+ combos.

Anyway, I'll keep using "2degress" as you suggested...
