Titles are a funny thing.
They can hit you right smack between the eyes and stay in your head for the rest of time or be forgotten in an instant. They are an area of hot debate on any production with many people sharing their opinion. Finding the right one that sum’s everything up in a nice little package is a big challenge.
The early working title for We Are Astronomers was ASTRONOMER 2.0. Internally we really liked the idea and it summed up everything we were trying to say about collaboration, democratization of information, sharing and mashing up data, all things digital and connected. We still really like it but as development went on we explored other options and tried to come up with something more accesible and We Are Astronomers was born.
Some of the other titles on our short list are below along with some great suggestions from a survey we did before the Blog went live. Feel free to fill it out and make your own suggestion for a title or use the comments box below.
Not changing the title now though, we think We Are Astronomers Rocks!
