Google completely destroys creativity. At least that is the effect it had on our product name. Unless you are a company with marketing dollars to reprogram people with, you want to be found via Google. How did we choose our product name? Simple, really. We just googled the phrase that might return potential competitors. The first one we tried wasn’t taken, so that was it. This scheme worked out so well, that now we’re getting requests to do a version of Podcast Maker for windows. I tell them to get a Mac. Can you believe that I switched to the Mac less than a year ago?
We have been working hard to bring the next version of Podcast Maker. .Mac support will make it really easy to podcast.

…are you implying the name “podcast maker” wasn’t out there? Or potion factory? Either way, cool.

Surprisingly, Podcast Maker wasn’t being used. Deciding to call ourselves Potion Factory was a totally different experience. Some of the candidates were 12 Angry Geeks, Crouching Coder Hidden Bug, Temptatious Software, and my personal favorite: Awake From Nipple.
Ultimately, we chose Potion Factory because we wanted to make software that work like magic.

Shaolin Coder was another candidate and my favorite.
