Which name? AmericanThought.com or AmericanThoughts.com?

I'll be developing this as a political, current events, op-ed news and discussion site/blog. Should I use the singular or the plural? Obviously I'll redirect the other to the site, but which should be the official site name?

When I reistered the domains, I was set on using the singular and thought most people would think that was the more suitable name...but now I'm not so sure.

I think the singular is better, but go with both, as it's only an extra $10/year or less. The singular seems all encompassing and scholarly, in my opinion. Although, the plural seems to convey a multitude of different points of view, as opposed to a unified perspective.

They have different meanings (!).

Singular tends to totalitarian, zomby type society, plural is
definitely more democratic.

Better don't use any of them. Buy a shorter, simpler one. It doesn't have to be com. us or info
suits ok.
