Getting the Semiotic name out there

So, of course, I think we've all noticed a loss of newbie flow and activity in the last month or two so I was wondering if anyone has any ideas for solutions.
We are looking at getting a domain so that it's not so tricky to remember, but of course with a domain comes a lot of opportunities.

The first being advertisement. We can do it online [other forums, social networks, blogs, friends etc] as we have been. But also another being in real life [posters, stickers, stuff like that.]
An example being seeing a sticker in a city cafe's toilet for a site "eat4cheap.com.au", which I thought was great as it was relevant and for some reason I remembered it. :P But with that could come legality/tracability issues, could it not? :)
I also know that flyers are pretty easy to pile in places and hope people take them. And some places are more open to it than others...

Any other ideas? :)

Interviews with music people, I've been on sites that did that with semi-underground artists and 99% of them responded and gave the interview, I know this isn't a music site but it might increase views.

I've actually thought about something like this, but more sitting down with figures from the community, and interviewing them on pressing issues and their stance.
Like more underground people, of course...

Then putting on YouTube. :banana: :o

I had an idea yesterday, but I guess we'd need to be bigger for it to happen, so I'll shush for the time being.

That's going on at the moment, and my idea was sort of related to it.
Like, semiotic living art.

Nah, you're right, it wouldn't work.
Oh well.

Making this place a little unique. Setting some sort of purpose for it

on a side note, can someone find a iPhone friendly template for this place?

I'm not sure what that would entail, but I'll look into it. [RE: iPhone thing]

A new forum order/new forums will be coming. I have a layout posted. :)

Like I said, we need some sort of idea, or concept to make this place unique. Which I've been bugging you for a while about, sayf =P

so far, the bunny has 1 total plan, 1 generic idea, 2 small ideas.

If I can get that far in five minutes, I'm sure sayf will have no problem =P
