ORACLENERD Naming Convention
I don't think I've ever mentioned this before, but it's probably a good idea. I've hassled friends before about it (
Jake,
Jeff and others).
The name of the site is
oraclenerd. Ideally, small caps. Barring that, all caps or lowercase. Never, ever, ever, camel case. Yuk. I'm not a java guy. :)
Not 2 words either, mostly for the copyright infringement possibilities. I first encountered this a few years ago when trying to create t-shirts with Cafe Press, they rejected Oracle Nerd, probably because of the Oracle part. That's when I made it one word,
oraclenerd or just oraclenerd.
Amusingly, I'm currently fighting with Facebook about their
allowed name possibilities, no caps and no all lower-case. I already gave in to
Katezilla, which annoys me. I wanted it to be all lower-case. For
oraclenerd though, I'm attempting to fight the man. We'll see.
Definitely not trying to be a jerk...just never thought I would have to say anything because I never figured I would be referenced any where. I have 3 references now, so I have to control my brand. :p
