    That's it. I'm completely fed up with hearing about this stupid new whizz-bang service, dammit! Please stop posting and blogging and writing articles about this crap.

    Blogger and Picasa are good names: concise, searchable, and trademarkable.

    But I guess that Google's marketing department wants headlines to reverberate their name in the tech and business media.

    I will adjust, but I still think that the decision sucks.
