the tree of woe

One of the most stressful parts of starting a blog is thinking of a name. Sure, you can call it something like “Blog,” but no one is going to read that. Some people use a title that actually describes the content you will find inside the blog. Sure, that’s fine for non creative types. To stand out, though, you need a name that is a cross between a good band name and a good book title. Something pretentious. “The Tree of Woe” is a good example. It sounds kind of literary and mysterious, but has absolutely nothing to do with the blog itself whatsoever. Those “in the know” will think I sound hip. Those really “in the know” will recognize it as a professional wrestling reference, and will consequently(and rightly so) have nothing further to do with me.
