schestowitz | Question.... should the site be renamed? | Mar 30 01:20 |
schestowitz | I got this from a reader: | Mar 30 01:21 |
schestowitz | > How about posting a statement saying you don't like the name, and you | Mar 30 01:21 |
schestowitz | > never did, and saying why. It could continue asking people to please | Mar 30 01:21 |
schestowitz | > support a change to a name that would better express the site's | Mar 30 01:21 |
schestowitz | > mission and could make it more effective. | Mar 30 01:21 |
schestowitz | > | Mar 30 01:21 |
schestowitz | > Then you could suggest some names you are considering, and ask people | Mar 30 01:21 |

schestowitz | That seems worthwhile. I think I ought to start asking and finding out about a rename, esp. if Novell gets sold. | Mar 30 01:22 |

schestowitz | Maybe we can do just banner work without changing domain name? | Mar 30 01:40 |
schestowitz | That would be simpler to implement | Mar 30 01:40 |
schestowitz | Any ideas for a name? | Mar 30 01:40 |
Aondo | names can be quite hard | Mar 30 01:41 |
schestowitz | Boycott Novell can become secondary identity | Mar 30 01:42 |
ThistleWind | corporation watch? | Mar 30 01:43 |
ThistleWind | it's expanded to cover the activities of several corps and their subsidiarys | Mar 30 01:44 |
schestowitz | ThistleWind: sounds like we are anti-coporation | Mar 30 01:45 |
schestowitz | Let's soften the work corporation | Mar 30 01:45 |
schestowitz | *word | Mar 30 01:45 |
schestowitz | TO indicate it's ruthless towards freedom | Mar 30 01:45 |
ThistleWind | theyre gonna try to portray you as that anyway, regardless of the name | Mar 30 01:45 |
schestowitz | "Watch" would be a good description | Mar 30 01:45 |
ThistleWind | freedomewatch | Mar 30 01:46 |
schestowitz | ThistleWind: it's not for the critics | Mar 30 01:46 |
schestowitz | It's for first-time landers | Mar 30 01:46 |
schestowitz | Those who know nothing about the site and have no impression other than some page about Monsanto, for example | Mar 30 01:46 |
schestowitz | ThistleWind: I like the name | Mar 30 01:46 |
ThistleWind | The Lobby? | Mar 30 01:46 |
ThistleWind | a place where lobbyists are all gathered together | Mar 30 01:46 |
schestowitz | "The Lobby" as site name? | Mar 30 01:46 |
ThistleWind | with a spotlight on their activities | Mar 30 01:47 |
schestowitz | Lobby is connotated with corporations vs govt. | Mar 30 01:47 |
schestowitz | Freedom watch says we focus just on the freedom | Mar 30 01:47 |
ThistleWind | true, which is a large part of what you do | Mar 30 01:47 |
ThistleWind | k | Mar 30 01:47 |
schestowitz | "Watch" comes with the negative entity | Mar 30 01:48 |
schestowitz | Like "GM Watch" or "GateWatchers" | Mar 30 01:48 |
schestowitz | I think we can reconcile this today and I can do some branding | Mar 30 01:48 |
ThistleWind | prob with finding a name is finding a domain name to match, and most of the cool ones are gone | Mar 30 01:50 |
schestowitz | No need for domain for now | Mar 30 01:51 |
schestowitz | The domain name is too long for most people to notice | Mar 30 01:51 |
schestowitz | Except regulars | Mar 30 01:51 |
schestowitz | And I can start in-place | Mar 30 01:51 |
schestowitz | Hmmmm... villain watch... too strong | Mar 30 01:52 |

schestowitz | ThistleWind: heh. Pictures with that banner? | Mar 30 01:58 |
schestowitz | I suppose people associate "Watch" with criticism | Mar 30 01:58 |
schestowitz | Supervision so to speak | Mar 30 01:58 |
schestowitz | Novell is to be chopped soon anyway | Mar 30 01:59 |
schestowitz | So Novell is ruled out | Mar 30 01:59 |
schestowitz | It's like running a site about Sun or PeopleSoft | Mar 30 01:59 |
ThistleWind | usually "watch" is associated with oversight not-for-profits | Mar 30 01:59 |
schestowitz | Yeah | Mar 30 01:59 |
ThistleWind | to me anyway | Mar 30 01:59 |
schestowitz | Based just on other sites | Mar 30 01:59 |
schestowitz | Greenpeace sounds OK | Mar 30 02:00 |
schestowitz | Peace | Mar 30 02:00 |
schestowitz | And Green | Mar 30 02:00 |
ThistleWind | which is what you do | Mar 30 02:00 |
schestowitz | Watch is too much like a guard's image | Mar 30 02:00 |
schestowitz | OK, so "Watch" seems like a decent second word | Mar 30 02:01 |
schestowitz | WHat do we watch? | Mar 30 02:01 |
ThistleWind | or monitor | Mar 30 02:01 |
schestowitz | One work to embody all | Mar 30 02:01 |
schestowitz | Monopoly Watch? | Mar 30 02:01 |
schestowitz | Monitor sounds good, yeah | Mar 30 02:01 |
schestowitz | Monopoly Monitor? | Mar 30 02:01 |
Aondo | Justice :D | Mar 30 02:01 |
schestowitz | Microsoft Monopoly Monitor | Mar 30 02:01 |
ThistleWind | the only context I see monitor in, is either the thing you see on your pc, or the peeps who watch election boxes | Mar 30 02:01 |
schestowitz | Aondo: yeah, that too | Mar 30 02:01 |
schestowitz | Software Justice Monitor? | Mar 30 02:02 |
schestowitz | We mostly cover software, so it ought to say something | Mar 30 02:02 |
ThistleWind | or a hugh school monitor | Mar 30 02:02 |
schestowitz | We don't cover h/w | Mar 30 02:02 |
ThistleWind | monitor does give the cctv image too | Mar 30 02:02 |
schestowitz | Software Freedom Monitor? | Mar 30 02:02 |
schestowitz | I wouldn't say "free software" (ambiguous to most people) | Mar 30 02:03 |
Aondo | sounds like a program to install | Mar 30 02:03 |
schestowitz | I thought about making a LIve CD | Mar 30 02:03 |
schestowitz | BN DB is about 500MB | Mar 30 02:03 |
schestowitz | SFM | Mar 30 02:03 |
ThistleWind | I wouldnt have a name of any corp in the title,as it covers a whole ecoshpere of companies | Mar 30 02:03 |
schestowitz | SFW=Watch | Mar 30 02:03 |
schestowitz | Yeah | Mar 30 02:04 |
schestowitz | And it's a moving target | Mar 30 02:04 |
ThistleWind | thats why boycottnovell has seemd the wrong name for ages now | Mar 30 02:04 |
schestowitz | I could rebrand very quickly | Mar 30 02:04 |
schestowitz | ThistleWind: yes | Mar 30 02:04 |
ThistleWind | it's way beyond just them | Mar 30 02:04 |

schestowitz | Fighter=too strong | Mar 30 02:06 |
ThistleWind | TechMon | Mar 30 02:06 |

schestowitz | or "Watch" | Mar 30 02:06 |
schestowitz | ThistleWind: like PokeMon?? | Mar 30 02:07 |
ThistleWind | was thinking Tech Monitor | Mar 30 02:07 |
schestowitz | Tech is too broad | Mar 30 02:07 |

schestowitz | *tessier_: | Mar 30 02:09 |
schestowitz | tessier_: we're thinking of a new site name | Mar 30 02:10 |
schestowitz | Not domain, just identity, naming for now | Mar 30 02:10 |
schestowitz | Any suggestions? | Mar 30 02:10 |
schestowitz | Aondo: community sounds like communism to many people | Mar 30 02:10 |

schestowitz | tessier_: no domain change | Mar 30 02:14 |
ThistleWind | had a flash of Satch there lol | Mar 30 02:14 |
schestowitz | Just branding, with Boycott Novell as secondary (legacy) identity | Mar 30 02:14 |
schestowitz | I reckon it would be simpler to do it that way | Mar 30 02:14 |
tessier_ | I see. Not a bad idea. Eventually Novell will go away anyhow. Might as well start building up a non-issue specific brand. | Mar 30 02:14 |
Banana_ | schestowitz: should obtain other domain and redir here for now. If you ever decide to change, that'll make it easier. | Mar 30 02:15 |

schestowitz | Ah! | Mar 30 02:17 |

ThistleWind | you could use the trim url shortner for extra branding on twitter / identica | Mar 30 02:17 |
schestowitz | The company... versus rim *** | Mar 30 02:17 |
ThistleWind | I trim could also be the motto of barbers | Mar 30 02:17 |
schestowitz | I trim Novell | Mar 30 02:18 |
ThistleWind | its also a term for trimming back the dead excess of the overall item | Mar 30 02:18 |
ThistleWind | gardners | Mar 30 02:18 |
ThistleWind | tidying up stuff | Mar 30 02:18 |
schestowitz | Yeah. | Mar 30 02:18 |
schestowitz | We do roundups of news | Mar 30 02:19 |
ThistleWind | which means an eye and instinct for spotting what is the dead weight | Mar 30 02:19 |
schestowitz | Hopefully nearly exhaustive for some topics | Mar 30 02:19 |
schestowitz | ITRiM or ITRIM? | Mar 30 02:19 |
schestowitz | I could associated this with the old name, I guess | Mar 30 02:19 |
schestowitz | ITRIM Microsoft, I-TRIM Novell, etc. | Mar 30 02:20 |
ThistleWind | capitalising the I suggests theres a I word | Mar 30 02:20 |
schestowitz | Just for puns | Mar 30 02:20 |
schestowitz | Different sections | Mar 30 02:20 |
schestowitz | ThistleWind: yes, but it looks unexpected | Mar 30 02:20 |
ThistleWind | all caps could just look like any other in all caps | Mar 30 02:21 |
ThistleWind | a lowercase char is a focal point | Mar 30 02:21 |
tessier_ | Domain names are case insensitive. | Mar 30 02:21 |
tessier_ | So you cannot count on the case always being preserved. | Mar 30 02:21 |
ThistleWind | yeah, but the logo | Mar 30 02:21 |
tessier_ | true | Mar 30 02:22 |
tessier_ | People would know what it meant when they saw the logo | Mar 30 02:22 |
*schestowitz launched GIMP | Mar 30 02:22 | |
schestowitz | I just never chose the name Boycott Novell | Mar 30 02:22 |
schestowitz | Time to distance self from it, at last | Mar 30 02:22 |

tessier_ | Like Drudge Report or Colbert Report | Mar 30 02:23 |
schestowitz | That too might work | Mar 30 02:23 |
schestowitz | ThistleWind: what do you think of tessier's suggestions? | Mar 30 02:24 |
ThistleWind | rights report is very generic | Mar 30 02:24 |
schestowitz | I don't want to remove proposals without this debate | Mar 30 02:24 |
schestowitz | Cause I'm definitely changing name tonight :-) and looking forward to it | Mar 30 02:24 |
ThistleWind | remember these corps name stuff after what it means for them, not the end user | Mar 30 02:24 |
tessier_ | ThistleWind: Generic is good when you don't necessarily know what you will ever want to cover | Mar 30 02:25 |
tessier_ | Being too specific is what's wrong with bn right? | Mar 30 02:25 |
ThistleWind | yeah, but it sounds like "news" which coiuld cover anything from a baking context to football results | Mar 30 02:25 |

schestowitz | The name is vacant | Mar 30 02:26 |
schestowitz | There's Human Rights Report | Mar 30 02:26 |
tessier_ | I also like the whole concept of "samizdat" | Mar 30 02:26 |
tessier_ | You don't see that word used much anymore. It used to be semi-popular among tech hipsters, underground, etc. | Mar 30 02:26 |
tessier_ | But that is probably more appropriate to wikileaks etc | Mar 30 02:27 |
ThistleWind | IT rights report possibly | Mar 30 02:27 |
