How about "thingamabob"? If it was a vote, I'd say "Portlet", but I'm probably biased, given that I teach a Portlet class in uPortal and I do not teach anything about channels.

Fragments vs Tabs vs Pages... That one is a lot harder for me. I'm really ok with any choice. Although when I'm talking to people, I'll probably always fall into the habit of calling them tabs.

Hi all,

In cleaning up the up3 UI, I've noticed that the terminology isn't always consistent. What do we want to use? I think historically we've used channel and tab as terms? At Yale, we've switched to calling those items portlets and pages, not that that's necessarily better.

I don't have strong feelings about what terminology we use, although I would like to fix it to all be the same. What would everyone prefer?
