Oh, I just love this! After I ranted a couple of times (here and here) about how tired Xtreme and Xperiment and other X-names are, A Daily Reader took me to task:
- Yes, the whole â€X†thing is old, and it is unfortunate that ASAE is using it as part of the meeting theme. But at the same time I do have to say that replacing â€to†with â€2″ beyond tired too.
You are so right! I never really liked it, but couldn't think of anything better when I first launched this thing a few years ago. And facetoface just looks icky.
So, here's your chance to name this blog. Put your suggestions in the comments below, or e-mail them to me. I'll put the best suggestions up for a vote here on (for now) face2face, and the winner will win, I dunno, something. A free subscription to one of our magazines? Naw, since they're free anyway, that's not much of an incentive. How about a book on meeting planning from my vast library? Or some leather luggage? Well, I have to do some more thinking on this, but there will be a small-but-fabulous prize of some kind.
So go ahead and send those suggestions! I can't wait to see what you come up with (and if no one wants to play, well, we'll be stuck with f2f since I obviously haven't come up with a better name in three years.)
