Discussion

We need to rename the "weblog" to blog. Nobody knows what a weblog is and it's very bad for branding. Using the word weblog just seems like an aggressive attempt to start a fight with the entire internet.

Many prominent people use the term weblog.

• Many people do use weblog; but, in a corporate enviroment most people are use to typing blog.companyname.com. Google has 1,910,000,000 for blog and 178,000,000 for weblog, I think if we want to keep the mainstream focus of users we have to use blog. I'd also like to see blog.aboutus.org instead of a domain name, or weblog.aboutus.org if we don't change the name. --Simon | talk 15:58, 19 December 2007 (PST)

Meta To-dos

• Create a task for WriteWeblogPosts and get it on our list for the next iteration.
• Create tasks for the above dones, either together or separate depending on which groups need to work on them and/or if they depend on each other.
