Are we going to play off 8A? Or you want a totally new name.

Well, I plan on doing some integration with 8Asians.com proper - user avatars in the blogs, maybe some discussion links in the sidebar, so there should probably be some play off of the 8A brand. (HA, I said the brand, like we're fucking Microsoft or something.)

I'm not sure then. if we keep 8Asians together, then what you have is one way to do it. If we can break it apart, then 8^n (looks better in graphics since I don't know if ning supports superscript in html)... or something like 888asians or something. To designate more than one of us (authors wise) since this would be more the social forum area.

8 billion asians. I dunno. lol. I can't think right now.

Why not just 8A Forum? Other sites (no names, but we've certainly cited to them before) that have a main site which is blog-like and a secondary site that is discussion board-like just call the blog-like page X and the discussion board-like page X Forum.

8A Forum sounds good to me. I was going to go mathematical and suggest ">8asians.com" but I don't think HTML can use the ">" character anyway.

Great idea, Akyrpti. The idea of saying 8Asians.com ______ is slightly better than the More Than idea - it sounded clunky. I probably won't use the word "Forum" though, only because there are other things about this service besides the Forum, although my guess is that most people will use it as such. I'll play around with naming conventions.

The 8A Way

haha.


Or 8A You Say?

8A Day to Day!

I dunno... I've had 3 hours of sleep. For some reason, rhyming names are cool.

I thought 8asians.com was a porn site initially, which I must admit is what intrigued me here in the first place..so sure let's just keep it to something along that theme..
