Robert Scoble liked our business card idea...

Robert left a comment to say he liked the idea, but didn't like the title given him on the card. However, it turned out he didn't like the title because he read it as "Influential Blogger" and he thought it wasn't irreverant enough.

The title actually reads "Influential BoggLer", which is where the irreverance comes into play... thing is though several people have read the card that way.

In a way I like that - it's quite subtle and not everyone gets it immediately. My theory at the moment is that those who play Boggle see it faster.

It might also be to do with that email that was floating around a while back:
Aoccdrnig to a rscheearch at Cmabrigde Uinervtisy, it deosn't mttaer in waht oredr the ltteers in a wrod are, the olny iprmoetnt tihng is taht the frist and lsat ltteer be at the rghit pclae. The rset can be a total mses and you can sitll raed it wouthit a porbelm. Tihs is bcuseae the huamn mnid deos not raed ervey lteter by istlef, but the wrod as a wlohe.
Amzanig.
Anyway, Bif sent me another idea, and it is irreverant to say the LEAST... I'm off to Spain for a few days this week, so I probably won't get it done before I go, but I'm very curious to see what Robert's reaction to it might be!

Funnily enough I managed to read all the email extract no problem except for without. I think it was the "wo" at the start that threw me. Thought it was would (which made no sense).
