The (Official) Name-my-program-plz-contest :P

No... We're not going to insult each other here... that's what the Crazy Forum is for...:P

Now, what I want you people to do (in other words: please help me out:P) is to think of a name for the new program I have written, which can be used for New Members, and also to just the regular members like all of us...

It can perform the following stuff:

The Welcome Message Generator has been left out.

The Answering machine can answer stuff like: "Where's the server?" and "How do I bind to key?" and so much more
Quite handy for new members?

It can store 1000 (that's right, a thousand!) of your favourite links alongside a short description

It can store 1000 (yes, again, a thousand!) of your engagements, like classes you have to attend, meeting up with the girlfriend, and stuff like that.

It also contains the Jedi Academy Banners made in the Logo contest (with approval of the makers, of course)

Now, because I lack a certain thing called 'originality' I'm wondering if you can think of a name for this nifty little gizmo!

After this week, I'll pick out the 5 or 6 best ones, and open a poll...

Aight?

Get to the name-calling people!:D

Oh right, before you all call me a show-off...
I started this to practice for my VB-programming exam... and decided to expand it and put it to real use too...

Like we really needed to know how big Bail's Thing is... :eek:

I really like that, the JA Datapad and the JA Swiss Army Knife ideas (I just started learning QuArK).

How about the JA Bailiff?

Or how about Windows?

It's a .zip, so does anyone know any site which allows uploading .zip's?

JA Datapad...

What would be very nice would be if you could make the classes page appear in a window, and have it access the database, meaning when you enroll in a class, it automatically puts it in the events recording thing.

Well cool idea Bail!
