| Aug 17, 2009 at 2:17 | comment | added | Farseeker | I agree with your sentiment, except for "The domain name should not be considered that seriously". I would argue that the domain name is incredibly important, as a subdomain implies a trusted relationship with the TLD. A subdomain on stackoverflow.com has no trust with superuser.com or serverfault.com except by association (they're all part of the trilogy)... | |
| Aug 17, 2009 at 2:12 | comment | added | TheTXI | Farseeker: all the sites have the links to the blog and meta. And the blog lists all the sites. I don't think that the domain name should really be considered that seriously. StackOverflow is more than just a single site, it's a paradigm. Most people associate the way the sites work with SO more than they would StackExchange, so it makes more sense. | |
| Aug 17, 2009 at 2:09 | comment | added | Farseeker | Same goes for the blog. The blog now compasses a lot more than just stack overflow, so should it be moved to a neutral domain? | |
| Aug 17, 2009 at 2:07 | comment | added | Farseeker | Oh, I'm aware of that. I'm just not sure if other people from other sites would be. Is the name "meta stack overflow" still appropriate? because it's not a stack overflow-only site... | |
