Amazing name.

I've tried Squirt and it's great, but as Steve Ballmer proved naming anything 'squirt' or 'squirting' is not a path to long-term product success.

The thought of anything squirting in my eyes, ears or wherever is one I don't want.

Well... from the previous HN discussion I had Squirt in my favorites bar, until I did a work presentation and realized the name could be misinterpreted! I then quickly deleted it.
My thoughts exactly. I bookmarked this as 'Speed Reading', instead.
How could it be misinterpreted?
You could always rename it!
