I need a name for a piece of software, and I'm enlisting you — yes YOU — for help.
This software, to summarize quickly, will bring its users news. And I use the term "news" loosely. It will bring actually, real, news, yes. It will also bring stock quotes, weather information, software annoucements, and your friend's journal. For those slightly more technical, it is a news aggregator that manges RSS subscriptions. In the best possible case, I would have two names. One name for the part that fetches the news, and another name for the part that displays the news.
Please keep these guidelines in mind. The name should be short, or have a useable acronym. For instance, SCUBA is an acronym for "Self Contained Underwater Breathing Apparatus". The longer name is descriptive, the acronym is easy to pronounce. Recursive acronyms are even better. For example, PHP stands for "PHP: Hypertext Preprocessor". Catchy and/or silly names are also good. For instance, "Rover" might be a good name for the part of this program that fetches the news. Unfortunately, that name is taken already, which brings me to my final point. If at all possible, do a quick check to make sure the name isn't already being used.
The submitter with the best name (as judged by me) will be honored in as many ways as possible on the software's homepage.
Oh yeah… one more thing. I need the name today. So hurry.
