- rsynnott 2y agoBluesky is itself presumably called that because it was _Twitter's_ skunkworks project back in the day. Also, fun fact: the Bluesky CEO's name means "blue sky" (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jay_Graber#Early_life https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jay_Graber#Early_life), _but_ she was only hired as CEO a couple years after the project started, so it definitely wasn't named after her. That's some serious nominative determinism; it's a close second on this one: https://news.sky.com/story/shoe-zone-announces-terry-boot-as-next-finance-boss-replacing-peter-foot-12240119 https://news.sky.com/story/shoe-zone-announces-terry-boot-as...
