The codepoet is Dead; Long Live the codepoet!

A little deduction goes a long way, but I’ll spell it out for the lot of you: this guy is this guy and this guy.

I’m changing my username on the sites I’m an author/owner of to make it more obvious, but now that I’m not working for Apple any more there’s no need to not say who I am as I write about the Mac, so there’s no need for the nickname/alias/handle/cover-of-darkness that was “codepoet”.

But the domain’s nifty, so I’ll keep it. Smiling


Oh, and for the record:

  1. It’s “codepoet”
  2. and “codepoetry”

Not “Code Poet” or “Code poet” or “codePoet” or whatever other incarnation. Same with codepoetry. If you can get iPod right, you can get that right.

I still think it’s cool to call yourself codepoet. Just do an “about me” section saying your real name.

I think it is as well, but there are two things preventing me from keeping it:

  1. No one is smart enough to type it right, and that’s always bugged me.
  2. People will always see the two names as separate and I’d rather have one reputation than two.

The latter is really the bigger one.
