Thank God for Twitter
As you know, we ran a competition to find a new name for our Firefox extension. Aido and I went through the names and couldn’t find one we liked. So we thought…
As a way of thanking everyone for their contribution, I decided to give away the iPod anyway. So, tonight I pasted everyone’s name into a word document and assigned a number to each one. I then asked my Twitter friends to suggest a number so I could choose the winner. I’m extremely lucky because Pat Phelan picked Mike Butcher’s number.
That’s the good news for Mike. The lucky news for me is that one of Mike’s suggestions was powdrr.com Given that Aido and I came up with POWDR, I think Mike should have won anyway.
Talk about being lucky! And I’m referring to me being lucky, not Mike. Reading back on this post, I’m wondering if we should go with powdrr instead of POWDR. Argh!
Weird huh?

Hmmmm … it can’t hurt given that he writes for Techcrunch.
@Dave – I’d agree but I know Mike. It would take for at least an iPhone to ‘buy’ him
iPhone? laptop minimum
@pat – nah, Mike’s cheap
