RE: Name YOUR decentralized social network?
I have been busy on the 9/11 blogs. Have you read them? Quite detailed.
I happenstanced on the following linked very attractive webpage layout and design:

I’m now starting to get a little confused over […]
That’s the problem with having too many names.
I think we should simplify:
Name | Purpose |
---|---|
cred | major token unit |
blips | smallest (dust) token unit |
Hyperdata | decentralized ledger technology |
Uncommons | |
Keeper | file archiving DAPP |
Oodles | |
Immortal | gaming portal DAPP |
? | secure messaging |
The Uncommons will have built-in DAPP functionality for a wiki encyclopedia, blogging, Q & A, debates and discussion forums.
I thinking perhaps we shouldn’t attempt to retain name recognition (i.e. brand) so many names. So I am leaning towards all that functionality above is put on the Uncommons.
Others can create DAPPs (such as Keeper and Immortal) and have them listed on the portal.
EDIT 4 days later: Also Oodles is a more catchy name than Uncommons, is only 2 syllables, would standout more in the list at coinmarketcap.com, perhaps is more matched as portal of oodles of DAPPs, conveys the enticing notion of “oddles of cred
” and the unique onboarding design. Downside is that Oodles is less serious and prestigious.
Thus perhaps I prefer Oodles for the overarching project and portal name. And Uncommons only for the vetted DAPPs portal. However, it’s also tempting to discard Hyperdata and use only Uncommons for the project name, portal, and ledger technology name.
Yes, I have. Very detailed and forensic. I take my hat off to you. I can see a great deal of work has gone into them, though some of the science goes above my head - being from more of an arty/music/writing background. You make a compelling case. I wasn't aware of the radar blind-spots before.
Well, I liked the simplicity of the layout, though perhaps slightly less so the design; a subjective thing of course. But would probably be a good starting point worth finessing.
Yeah, I think the boiled-down list is an improvement. Greater clarity.
I'm still liking Uncommons a week or two in. It's strong. So, all the DAPPS under that, then in addition, the two individual token unit names, and Hyperdata - five in all, including "secure messaging"? For the latter, a quick name idea I had was Capsule.
