Phishing

Here's a possible slang term: Phishing. As defined, it would seem an idealmatch for a waker con game; so maybe a phisher is a Virtual con-artist. --IMAGinES 16:04, 10 Jun 2005 (PDT)

Other Ideas for Slang

  • Applet - teasing/derogatory term for a Bantam or maybe a dreamer?
  • Form Factor?
  • Nybble: See Applet.
  • Pinging also just has to be in there somewhere.
  • Raw and Cooked Data?
  • Readme, as in "Oh, come on, waker! Do you need a readme for this? It's easy!"
  • Safe Mode?

Kernel

I also like the idea of using the term kernel to refer to a waker's soul. Any thoughts?
