WOW!! I didn't know that two different companies could use the same word with the same spelling, only with the capital letter moved. Our's is eConnect vs Econnect.

>>In September, ASI will launch Econnect, a Web-based product that enables schools to create campus-specific intranet sites that help students and alumni find jobs. Econnect allows a career center to link students and recent graduates with employers seeking entry-level and early-career job candidates.<<

I am sure that Tom will look into it.

Thanks for pointing it out.

Go BETT!! Scoobey

Tom has filed for a trademark on eConnect. His attorney does not anticipate any problem, the name was available according to the trademark database.

eConnect/BETT would like to have econnect.com as a web address, if possible. However, it appears that the company mentioned in the article you found, has used econnect.com as their web address for some time. They have been asked if they would like to sell the web address. Not sure what the result will be. If they won't sell, Tom will just come up with a different clever web address.

You can own a web address, without having any trademark rights to the name. This is one of the more amusing results of our society's rapid head-first plunge into the new electronic world. Some very large companies have found themselves in the position of not owning web sites that sound like them.
