I bet it ends up being free then.
Why buy this app?

Sure.

Free.
Like when they buy Chicago and change the name to Chicagoogle, it will be free.

So if they buy:
Microsoft>>>Microgoogle
Disneyland>>>Googleland
White House>>>Google House (included Google-Bush President)
Any airline>>>Goo Airlines
And if they ship any CAD softwers, then it will be called as "GooCAD" Package.

I don't like this "Goo-" Globalisation!

I was just working the opportunistic joke angle where the syllable "go" in the poster's city of Chicago (an expensive city) was the lead-in to "Google."

Have you got any phrases that do that?

Like when Google acquires a skin disease and call it "impetigoogle."

Or when they try to overturn a third world country and publish their "Manifestoogle."

Altho that is stretching it because there is no room for the "g".

I'm not working on this, but 1st that comes in to my head was name of japan killer-girl from "Kill Bill vo.1" Gogo. So call her Gogoole. It's not exactly what are you searching for, but...

p.s.: Manifestoogle was "funny".

Maybe now Google SketchUps her 3D Model for free, so everyone can look at she from every viewpoint via GoogleEarth.

Will Google make the product free?
SketchUp continues to be $495. There are currently no plans to change the pricing model of SketchUp or to offer it for free.
