Better, and more business oriented, demo data for the content stuff would be really great.

Disclaimers are good, but another practice we've been using is "ridicularity", if you take my meaning. In other words make the names and such so silly (and entertaining, if you must) that people will get the idea. Using product names like widgets and gizmos is pretty much along this line. Some may not translate into foreign languages as much, but they get the idea pretty quickly anyway (yeah, I've seen a lot of questions from clients around the world and sometimes in English-speaking places too about what a widget is and what a gizmo is...).

Is there any reason I can't make up names for people
and businesses? We could have a disclaimer note in the
demo data similar to movie disclaimers saying that the
data is ficticious and any similarity to real
people/businesses is coincidental.

What do you think?
