name change

(posted on 2007-03-27 02:54:00)

Rule one on the web: when you come up with a name for your site, search and see if someone else is already using it. I just did and found that another netizen is happily using the name Greg's Opinion for his blog. So I'll henceforth call this page Letters to the Editor.

I was thinking of a name like this anyway, because I want to do an "amateur op ed" blog rather than a "diary" or "interesting things on the web" blog. There are some very good examples of the latter already (eg Boing Boing and http://dev.null.org/blog/) so I won't try to muddy the wwwaters with more. ... On the other hand this post is breaking my vow already.

There's an irony-joke in the Letters title too, like the editor is some kind of powerful being who'll right society's wrongs.

I've added a Reply function so feel free to try it out.

reply 1 from Peta: Does that mean there isn't already a blog called "Letters to the Editor" ?

reply 2 from Greg: There are a few newspaper blogs with names like this (as you'd expect) but I couldn't find anything too similar to what I'm doing here ... in the first page of Google responses.

reply 3 from your mother: Did you search normal Google or Google blog search?

reply 4 from pjm: it's like the masculine version of "Dear Abby"

reply 5 from Noam Chomsky: it's a great name

reply 6 from Greg: This new blog of rejected letters to the editor is vaguely similar in spirit to my blog .. a few differences though

reply 7 from Koco: Let me recommend medical herbs reduce weight medicine: Super Slim Pomegranate is the most popular in the world, it and Green Lean Body Capsule is the same, just the packaging of the latter is a little better. Secondly it is Lida Daidaihua, they are very famous. Weight-reducing products of China that Botanical Slimming is packed by a kind of foreign language, Pai You Guo and Fruit and Plant Weight Loss capsule can help you to discharge the fat, the result of 3X Slimming Power is very good. Instant Slim, the result of Zhen De Shou Capsule, these medicines, is very good too. P57 Hoodia was drawn with cactus, extremely popular. The packaging of Fat Loss Slimming Beauty is very good, very effective, very worthwhile too. tracy from 2 Day Diet japan lingzhi
