I killed many viable brands at this stage (a lot of which were just being sat on by squatters, not in actual use), which is why first time around I settled for something so crappy.

The one I eventually selected was one of those "I'll check just in case" domains I didn't actually expect to be available: those are awesome. If you expect the domain name to be available before you even look it up, I think you're in danger of having chosen something too obscure.
