TBH, long time ago I was wondering how this blog named as techpp, now got the answer, not only the name is cool but it also results in a short and a keyword rich domain name too…just 6 words..that`s great..hard to find these days

Funniest one was Google. For the name to be out of their hands like that seems so silly. Fascinating read.
