Ouch Posted March 8, 2006 Share Posted March 8, 2006 I have nothing better to do today so i think i'm going to start a completely pointless thread. What are you favourite software names - not what applications are best, just which developers did the best job naming their app. Think of it as the cool wall for software (topgear reference for those that know it) My favourites are Toast with Jam (could it be any more random) Poisoned (recently introduced to this one - why?!) Chibi-Ninja (again just for the sheer randomness) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
