digg is unique and literal.

something easy to memorize or remember is always good

Unique is best.
Literal is crap.

keep it simple and try to avoid numerals. remember that at some stage you're gonna have to tell people the url and if its awkward, or long they aint gonna remember it and its going to be difficult to get people to go to the right place.
Also, consider the words youre using if you're combing them, don't spell out anything stupid like therapist.com
- I did not know that you coult hotlink like that. I'd maybe avoid that site, dunno what you could find there...ian

also consider that most dictionary words or combination of words are likely taken at this point

There's a long story behind the name scotsman capital we came up with. In short, a name is quite important in business.

yeah digg is a bit of both but only to web friendly people - ie: your grand parents would probably not get it.
