Contest: Name this blog!
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 âXâ 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 âtoâ with â2â³ 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.)

Since you blog about meetings I kind of like the concept behind the title “Face2Face” even if the 2 is a little overdone, it still works. Other things off the top of my head: “Face Time” or “Face Forward” or “Face Up.”

Right now you’re doing a reader’s poll, and it looks like Y/N are split evenly. Perhaps what gets one reader’s goat about face2face floats another reader’s boat, or we’re just here for the content and don’t mind much what you call this collection of content.
