Unless I'm totally clueless (it's happened before), how would the name of the site cause me to know what it's about? Not being a busker myself, is there something in the name that implies "hey, here's a place where you should perform online or watch online musicians."?


"Street JELLY" is a play on words for "street JAM" ... (probably because "street jam" is already taken)

I know the wordplay removes it from the obvious reference, but if they HAD nailed the name "street JAM", it would have been pretty intuitive to figure out.

Its worth mentioning that although the other alternatives cost money to participate, street jelly is unique in the fact that you can EARN money by playing there. One guy said recently that he's earned over $400 this year. That's not a lot, but at least his hobby isn't COSTING him anything. (assuming he already had a web cam, mic , etc)
