Gary understands a lot about what I'm trying to do with the language, how else could he have devised such a perfect name. I think naming a product is a community thing, the best names don't come from one person's mind. I left similar clues in RSS and in podcasting. It's also nice because it leaves open the option of the language existing outside of Drummer, but no one will miss that the language came from Drummer. You can beat the drum in Drummer by writing, if you're a poet, and if you're a plumber, there's Drumkit. It also reflects the duality of the product. I love how it connects to the name of the product, and it conveys the utility of having a language in a product such as Drummer. When I read the post, I was pretty sure this was the name. Gary Teter came up with the name in a blog post. There's nothing there at this time but a placeholder. The name of the scripting language in Drummer is Drumkit.

PS: This is what a River of News looks like.That's where rivers could make a huge difference, if they cared enough about the service they provide readers. This is a serious problem, and it's not going to get better in the current news system. I think they did far more damage than Facebook, and not surprisingly, that has not been examined to anywhere near the extent Facebook has. When I read yet another NYT article or op-ed about how Facebook is letting us down, I keep wondering when they're going to look at how they contribute to this problem, how their coverage of Hillary's Emails, for example, gave Trump the White House, and set the country on the path to authoritarianism.I wrote about how this would work in more detail in May 2015. If I were going to beg for anything that would most likely be it. And perhaps most important to introduce criticism of their work to their flow, something we need and they need. This would initially be an internal resource, but the obvious next step is to share the resource with their readers, in the interest of increasing news flow, broadening perspectives, and also introducing transparency. Blogs, newsletters, and whatever new forms come up in the future. I would encourage a news org to run a river of sources their reporters consider authoritative.I think the most important thing news orgs can do to improve their service is to include ideas and perspectives from outside the newsroom, esp those that are critical of their work.And I haven't been promoting rivers to them for quite some time, because I think the problems are much bigger now.I don't think I've ever 'begged' though at times I imagine it might have seemed that way.

Jeff Jarvis generously gave me support for the idea of using rivers in news orgs.
