It's a bit rough, but with a bit more polish, what do you think? Nice try, but an octupus has eight arms, not seven. What about the remaining arm? Or is that a logo of two octopi, one with four arms, and the other with three? Oh no, the poor octopi! If it's an octopi, surely it should have 3.1415926... arms? Where's the 0.1415926...?

Re: [Haskell] Re: Marketing Haskell
slow and lazy... that's me, too. but haskell is not slow. how about an octopus? there are some kinds (or all?), which are more chameleon like than real chameleons; they can look like strange fishes, stones, or whatever. they have a decentralized brain (like multi core), are really intelligent (can even open cucumber glasses, but probably not 100 bottles of beer) and are from the stronger types of animals; strong because they save their energy (glucose and oxygen) in their blood for times when they need it -- like being lazy but fast. they can swim backwards and can squeeze themself through holes of the size of their own eyes -- reminds me of javascript as backend. and they are funny and cool: they squirt water at you like dolphins -- the Quotes of the Week are funny and cool, too, but you have to wet yourself. imho, you can compare them to handy parrots (but mute) with colour/sign language and chameleon features. and they know some ninja arts; inky, but ninjas are cool. some videos: The Indonesian Mimic Octopus http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H8oQBYw6xxc One Very Clever Octopus http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VLLQOK1gZE4 Skilled octopus opens bottles http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wfRqYjv9QgA Octopus escaping through a one inch hole http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9-azBDt0kik Wow!
