Does this mean that http:// http:// is httpill? httpsill ftpill ircill sshill

Good ideas for some http processing libraries. We already have httpotion and httpoison for Elixir and httparty for Ruby. A pill has its place between them. Seriously, I disliked all 4 logos that made to Mozilla's shortlist. Moz://a wasn't the worst one graphically, but changing name to something unspeakable and ungooglable doesn't feel right. However I'll keep using Firefox. Hopefully they won't waste many energies into this bug.

  > but changing name to something unspeakable and ungooglable doesn't feel right. they're not changing the name. they're still "mozilla". they will still have "mozilla.org" and you'll still be able to google it. it's just a new logo. people are so over-reacting to this

    Imagine how they would react if Mozilla changed their logo to some non-font design? "What are we supposed to call them now? Circle? Circle square-rectangle? What is the world coming to, why would they call themselves Circle!"

      Non-font designs don't have these problems. Mercedes' three pointed star logo doesn't leave anybody puzzled about the spelling of their name. They have to ask for the name, then it's easy. Letters induce people thinking that the name of the company is what they see in the logo. Imagine you know about a new company from its logo C0mp4ny. I think everybody would assume that the name of the company is C0mp4ny, not Company.

That's actually a great idea for how to dictate urls over the phone, I'm adopting it to whenever I need to dicatate a url to someone who doesn't know that URLs start with an implied "httpill" but is familiar with mozilla's logo. erm.
