I*DB

Given the success of IMDB the Internet Movie Database, I wondered if there were other i*db urls that worked. I was surprised to find that only three others had sites, and even that is being kind.

isdb is the Internet Song Database just has a notice saying they're trying and looking for "fanatics to assist in the beta test"

IVDb is The Internet Vehicle Database. "Welcome to The Internet Vehicle Database! Help us build the world's largest and most complete vehicle database. Currently indexing 2091 vehicles." While they list Motorcycles, Boats, Snowmobiles, ATV's, Airplanes, Helicopters, and Bicycles as categories, they only have automobiles entered. and from what I can see there isn't much entered for the cars.

IYDB is the Internet Yacht Database, because the Internet needs one of those. And it's not even one of those, it just displays "sponsored" search results.

Seems like an opportunity.
