christinebean on 'how did you choose your blog's name?'

christinebean — Thu, 22 May 2008 18:23:14 -0500

I used my own name along with a twist on it....no ill will intended, but I'm Hispanic. I married someone with the last name of Bean (God's got a sense of humor as do I). Back in the 90's we were written up in a National computer magazine for having the most unique computerized bulletin board name using our name...thus BeansTalk or BeansTalkline. Thanks, Christine Bean

ramonaiftode.com is my actual name.
orthodontics-today.com was created with the main keyword in my mind. It's gonna gather some information I was able to find about this after 1 year of wearing braces (Damon) and now Invisalign. As I straighten my teeth and learn some more, I'd like to inform others ...

I like the "Inventing Elephants" title very much. It has just the right ring to it for the type of blog you describe.

it's named after a Bjork song from her Gling Glo album. Also I thought it was catchy.

I decided on Artist Perpetually in Progress for my art blog because I wanted to convey my general attitude and also make the purpose clear when only the title was seen.

Inventing Elephants for my thought blog came from an iteration of ideas beginning with my desire to think better and passing through a parable I'd related to with my art about the five blind men and the elephant. I actually wrote a detailed blog entry on this one... http://inventingelephants.com/2008/01/18/naming-inventing-elephants/

Of Cabbages and Kings is part of a Lewis Carroll poem, "The Walrus and the Carpenter"...

'The time has come,' the Walrus said
'To talk of many things:
Of shoes--and ships--and sealing-wax--
Of cabbages--and kings--
And why the sea is boiling hot--
And whether pigs have wings.'

As it's a humor blog with original stories on just about anything, it seemed like a good fit.

Mine is a play on words.
Inertia means “A body in motion tends to remain in motion, a body at rest tends to remain at rest.”

My site is all about Autoplay Jukebox thus I replaced the i with a v (for video) and ended up with: Vnertia.com = “A series of video’s in motion tends to remain in motion."

piodalcin: it just means that my blog is a space for my nonsense (gobbledygook), that's all. :)

alexmcone — Thu, 22 May 2008 05:59:41 -0500

The end of all my posts read "Alex Mcone ... reporting live from Bangalore"

I just really like that line. And so "Live from Bangalore" became the name of my blog.
