iSnack 2.0 ~
27th September 2009, 01:23 PM
The new Vegemite is being called iSnack 2.0 - because it's the next generation Vegemite.
http://www.news.com.au/story/0,27574...16-421,00.html Who else thinks that name is ridiculous? |

I still think " Skiddy-Mite" would have been an appropriate name.
Considering what it looks like when you spread it.

Quote from the guy who thought up the name:
""It was all a bit tongue-in-cheek, really. The 'i' phenomenon and web 2.0 have been recent revolutions and I thought the new Vegemite name could do the same."" Only a geek would get what he's talking about. I blame Apple for getting this world into the mentality that anything that starts with an 'i' must be inherently hip and cool with the crowd. |

The name iSnack 2.0 doesn't stimulate my appetite.
Who the hell wants to eat a piece of software? Epic fail.'They tried to go with the 'cool kid' angle. This is food, not a bloody arcade game... |

As someone who's eaten Vegemite all my life this new name sucks, sounds like technology meets the trendy 2 or 3 point concept. I WONT BUY IT GUYS.

The winner said "To think that I could go down in Australia's history is overwhelming."
He could maybe go down in Australia's history as the biggest douche? |

You may believe that you are responsible for what you do, but not for what you think. The truth is that you are responsible for what you think, because it is only at this level that you can exercise choice. What you do comes from what you think.

The same thing happened when the pharmaceutical company behind MYCOC was looking for a name several years ago and opened it up to a competition not unlike the vaginamite one.
Caused an up roar at the time. MYCOC was almost called COCFORME however, it was considered too long! something easier to swallow was in order it seems. A young advertising executive from Boise Idaho who also named the Australian bionic ear implant company Cochlear won the competition to name MYCOC after he heard about the competition on his local radio station.
