RE: My First STEEMBAY Auction [New Drawing]
Wow, this drove home how potentially awesome this could be. Hope we get a UI at some point.

working on it...
will be probably a downloadable application, no homepage, only posting key needed.
I am thinking about a sorting system, no limitation on the tags used, on-system storage of remembered items + a possibility to blacklist / limit people who are voting (e.g. minimum SBD holdings, minimum reputation etc.)
Glad you like it ;-)
Yes! I'm also pretty much amazed, how this is picking up pace :-) A steembay-app would make it just perfect.
Totally agree though I'm currently encouraging people to think bigger with their naming conventions. Steembay is too limiting, now "dbay" on the other hand ... ;)
Good point. Using the word "bay" in any auction related service might cause some legal issues. The guys creating "openbazaar" did quite well in creating a brand. Maybe something like "auct-chain" will do ;-)
"bay" is a word, you can't trademark it. No one uses openbazaar and auct-chain is again too niche. "dbay" is how I would go. It piggybacks off of their brand without violating their IP.
Appreciate your feedback on this and I'm not a lawyer, but doing a quick research on "Trademark Laws" tells me, that I should avoid choosing a name which is too similar to an existing brand.
