I wonder.

Wouldn't it be a good marketing move to put a "vote for a name change" on the website's front page? The idea would be to make announcements all over the place like slashdot, digg etc. and asking the average joe for his input. You know the saying, "there's no such thing as bad press".

Thoughts?
