  • The Name (Score:2)

    I think the project is great, but I don't care for the name Web.pm. It seems too all-encompassing, but at the end of the name, it's probably not that big of a deal. On the other hand, you can check synonyms from thesaurus.com:

    cobweb, complexity, entanglement, fabric, fiber, filigree, gossamer, interconnection, interlacing, involvement, labyrinth, lacework, lattice, mat, matting, maze, mesh, meshwork, morass, net, network, plait, reticulation, screen, skein, snarl, tangle, texture, tissue, toil, trellis, warp, weave, webbing, weft, wicker, woof

    I kind of like Lattice.pm or Trellis.pm, though Gossamer.pm sounds nice, too :)

    • Thank you for your suggestions. Some people don't care for the name Web.pm, some do, it seems. It might or might not be a good idea to discuss the merits of the name in the comments of this blog post. :)

      I'll end here before I start to give reasons for liking Web.pm. I already did that in links from the post.
