Okay, I've returned to my personal Swiki idea. I can probably get it 
working this Fall. Yeah! The basic idea is that it would be a semi-public 
space where you can put a good amount of your information (thoughts, 
contacts, links, assignments, etc.). I like to think of it as what home 
pages should be like.

But, one thing I want to have happen before I release it is to have a 
good name for it. Here are some things that come to mind:

My Home Page: this would be a good name for describing what it is. This would
   however not look like a unique name.

digiHome: along the lines of digimon, this would be your digital home. I like
   this except that google already has 132 links to pages under digiHome.

cranium: a place to keep your knowledge and thoughts. Perhaps a bit too
   biological.

mirror: when I look in the mirror, I see myself. You can see me too, but
   it's not the same view.

dual: from theatre, the dual is the other, that representation of self that
   is deceptively similar, yet infinitely foreign, beyond an impassable
   barrier.

otherSelf: same as dual.

Personal Knowledge Structures: this is my working title. It's a pretty 
   good description of what it is, but otherwise it is pretty bad.

Ohh well, anybody got any suggestions?

Peace and Luck!
