This is stuff from the mod queue and my inbox. I really love that you guys submit posts and links, and I really hate that giant red "reject" button, but I think it's better to try and round up links in news posts than fill up the f-lists of a couple thousand people (!!) with small chunks of info.

I kinda like our-thing. Or what about instead of fan-thing, fun thing (or fun journal). openverse to play off the open source idea? I suck at names

twocorpses said she is looking into off shore hosting here, which may or may not affect things with scribblit (not being into law, I really have no idea).

Also I feel like the links at this post might be useful.

I'm lousy with names, but possibly something that emphasizes the community aspect, not the individual ("journal") aspect?

[sparklebutch]

Fanplace?

[innerslytherin]

*G* I'm still quite fond of Our Thing, though I suppose it might be confusing when talking about it to others. I do like Fanfare, though I also liked Fanhaven. What about some other -haven? Um... WordHaven? ^_^

[maybemabel]

OpenHaven?

[train_diskense]

Sounds nice. :) I like that. 'OpenHaven'.

[gemme]

i really do like that. openhaven.

[sarashina_nikki]

Something with "Connect" in it? Or maybe "Nexus," which is a visually interesting word, and means things that are linked together, which is pretty apt I think. FanNexus? Connexus? Hmmm...

[trobadora]

I like Nexus. Open Nexus?

[brookmctirre]

Ooo, I like OpenNexus. I'm ON!

[trobadora]

Are you ON yet? :D
