Now that I'm spending more time on DCSki, I'm exploring the possibility of launching a second news-oriented site that has a broader focus than the Mid-Atlantic.  (Don't worry, DCSki isn't going anywhere; the two sites would complement each other.)  Of course, a lot of the content on DCSki has always had a broader focus than just the Mid-Atlantic, but the name of DCSki tends to restrict the audience.

I have a few name possibilities for the sister site and am curious if you all have any favorites (or any that you hate).  Here are the candidates:

SlopeWire.com

SnowBrief.com

SkiDish.com

SkiAndTell.com

SnowDish.com

Note that this supplementary site would focus on delivering news and feature stories in a simple, clean format -- I don't have any plans right now to add interactive/forum features.

I'm leaning towards one of these names but won't reveal which one so I don't bias the discussion.

Might the word ski in the name turn off snow boarders? I would eliminate "ski" to reach a broader audience. How about Snowsport News?

Agree that using "snow" vs "ski" would be better.

Of the list, SnowBrief and SlopeWire appeal to me the most.  Don't like "Dish" in general.
