Hare!

[Hamish Gill]

So yeah, I obviously think I'm funny don't I ...
Anyway, I put it there as a bit of a joke ... But actually it's given me a possibly silly, but also possibly interesting idea ...
We could give it a name an make it a little feature ...
Maybe it could link to somthing interesting or funny on the internet, something we all like ...
I can change what it links to pretty quickly ... So maybe we could have it as a weekly thing ... It could be a little mascot of some sort ... I dunno ... Just gives the place a bit more personality ...
Any other ideas what we could use him/her for?
Somthing a bit fun!

So you admit it exists then?

 

[Hamish Gill]

I might if pushed admit there is an orange hare floating about the place!

 

[Chris Dodkin]

I like the mascot idea, useful for promo, instantly recognizable, fun. Like the Duracell Bunny!

Also the fun link idea - bit of crazy whimsy about the site - in the same way Google does those crazy page headers

Go for it Hamish - you're on a roll!

 

[Thomas brookes]

Brilliant idea !!!! Altho my contributions to links will be all cat related lolcats.com and stuff. As for the name I have no idea I think it's something you need to choose. as you probly have all those baby name books!!!

 

[Pete Askew]

Great idea Hamish. A sort of "Have you seen Harry" for the forum!

 

[Hamish Gill]

That's exactly why a don't want to think of a name!

So...
Ideas for names ...
If anyone can think of a name post it here and we can have a vote!

 

[Thomas brookes]

Hugo here, Hugo there, Hugo hare is everywhere !!??

 

[Hamish Gill]

Sod voting thats thats the winner!!

I quite like the idea of it being a link to somthing funny, but also somthing we just like ...
Maybe like if we find an iPhone app we like we could give it the "Hugo hare seal of approval" we link to it, then I can send them them the .png saying they have a link in the header of our site, then if they stick it on their site as a kink back to us...
Then we could make a page with a list of all the stuff Hugo hare has liked ...

Excellent. Maybe Tom deserves to be promoted from 'Doesn't turn up to BBQ's" to "Hugo Hare Approved!".

 

[Thomas brookes]

Yeah baby!!!!!!! Plus I do turn up!! I attended hamish's rain BBQ. Hugoooo hugooo hugooo!!! Haha!! Yeah like a random link that takes you to an awesome site........ That's cool

 

[Hamish Gill]
