Scoblr hatr thisr trendr (Grabbr shoots screens to Flickr)

I’ve seen several geek projects lately use the “r” naming that Flickr made popular and I don’t like it.
Anyway, grabbr is a utility to make it easier to capture screen shots and upload them to Flickr.

Yeah, I’m getting punchy. Looks like Pittsburgh is gonna roll over Seattle in the Superbowl.

    Yeah, meaningful, complete domain names don’t abound, and the ‘r’ thing seems like a fashionable resort (for now). I’m not very enthusiastic about it myself.

    Maybe someone should really start a trend with a TLD other than com/net/org, so we all can grab cool domain names and start the whole thing again. Ditch the dot-com! :-)

    PS – For the terminally humorless and sarcasm-deficient, it’s a joke. I have no idea what that collection of stringed buzzwords mean, but, gosh sounds good, scary how easy it flows. Sorta like a walking talking Steve Gillmor. ;)

    Flickr Didn’t Start This Trendr

    Scoble says that Flickr made the trend of “r” names popular, but clearly that isn’t the case, as shown by the Rollmastr!

[...] Microsoft’s Robert Scoble was the first to complain, after noticing that the popular photo-sharing site Flickr had seemingly infected several other "geek projects" like the screenshot utility Grabbr. The new tech-gossip blog Valleywag was next to pick up on Scoble’s peeve, adding retrievr, gtalkr, talkr, flagr, Bloggr, gabbr and Frappr to the rogues’ gallery of malefactrs. [...]
