I wish there was some sort of social agreement to name projects new words, or combined words. We're overloading the english language so much. In 100 years it's going to be impossible to search for anything, as every word and phrase will have a million products and projects attached. Didn't the original MIT hackers take pride in coming up with clever and unique names? what happened to that? I'd even settle for names like "elinks"
