   Signing up on twitter.com to try #TwitterBridge #StatusNet plugin; someone else has my name, so I need to pick a new one... #brandconfusion

     So, I need to pick a unique name <= 15 chars on twitter.com; trying to pick one that won't encourage people to prefer that over other ways of contacting me...

     Options for twitter.com usernames that won't mislead friends who find my account: "15charpseudonym", "ungodlylongname"...?

     Oh, I could get "username_trunca"!

     Part of me is now thinking, "finding a #15charuniquenym is a fun game!"; another part thinks "picking a new name for myself that fits the restrictions and uniqueness-reqs on someone else's site when I already have an established name on the net AND a site of my own is a #STUPID game."

     The part of me that enjoys stupid name-picking games wonders "What fun is #federation if it just lets you have any name you think of?"....

     #Toddler interrupted my twitternym-picking game: held out a small envelope stuffed with random toys and said, "Daddy I got e-mail for you!".

     The part of me that thinks @nanohacker is more fun + important than stupid games agrees w/ the part that thinks twitternym games are stupid.
