In honour of my first 1000 days on Hubski, I compiled all the slogans and logos that have been suggested for hubski into one post. Many of them were originally here.
Regarding logos, the hubwheel is the #1 logo and appears on the stickers.
#2 logo is probably veen’s hubwheel bar.
The slogan on this graphic is hubski: you’re invited.
Hubski’s official slogan is: Hubski: a thoughtful web
Suggested as a tagline by mk in jest: "Sigh, I'm on Hubski, ok?"
Here are some others:
katakowsj: "Hubski is an online pub with creative and thoughtful people belly-up at the bar of reason and sanity."
forwardslash and me: "Some websites are just people shouting into the void. On Hubski, there is no shouting. And there is no void.”
me: "Hubski, a beach on the ocean of thought.”
mk: "Hubski, improving Reddit by example."
mk again: "You can't fight a thoughtful web." March 28, 2016.
me: "Hubski: where everyone knows your fake name."
StJohn: "Hubski — always your first drink, but never your second."
mk again: You should be sleeping, but Hubski . . .
_refugee_: "Hubski. Virtual third place. Cocktails welcome."
minimum_wage: Hubski: Circledots to the Clockwise
317: "Share news, share knowledge, share thoughts...One dot at a time."
BLOB_CASTLE: My explanation of Hubski to friends: "It's the oasis of the internet. Imagine a place with no trolls and no memes. Yes, it really does exist."
supasmasha: "Hubski: the non-judgemental friend who is willing to help or just chat."
and my favourite, adapted from a kleinbl00 post:
Hubski: Pushing the darkness back just a little bit more.
and a new one from kb found here:
Hubski: It's the shit between the dots.
EDIT Here's a new slogan (motto, philosophy) by veen from a discussion over here.
Hubski. Civility by design.
Veen said further that mottos must be in Latin, and gave us this:
Hubski. in civilitate consilium.
Suggested by nowaypablo from a post by kb: hubski- a good party
Suggested by eightbitsamurai in the previously cited post:
Hubski: A Thoughtful Web for Thoughtful Users.
and yet another by veen: Eight out of ten/ Would hubski again.
Suggested by am_Unition
"It's almost as bad as real life, but slightly better than 4chan."from nowaypablo inspired elizabeth's post.
Hubski: A thoughtful revolution of Chinese nationalists.
Not necessarily a slogan -- maybe a sticker, suggested by _refugee_ and vouched for by steve
Reddit is my cheap and dirty entertainment. Hubski is my friends.
"Hubski, your holiday home."
Hubski: Just be nice.
by arguewithatree inspired by rd95
Hubski is a social network taken from cyberpunk: an amorphous community of people spread out all over the world." by keifermiller
What a surprise, bfv and I were juuuust talking about this.
In my head after reading minimum_wage: Hubski: Circledots to the Clockwise my mind went to the old school thing about cootie shots, "Circle, circle, dot, dot now I got my Hubski shot."
Were the brooms in The Sorcerer's Apprentice making other brooms? I forget.Margaret Atwood has a foolproof plan to stop our increasingly intelligent and powerful machines from rising up and taking over control of the planet: Make sure any robots we build have an easy-access “off” switch.
I just heard this speech by Margaret Atwood at the CHI conference.
Fun little thought shared with me by a control theorist: When you want to design a self-replicating system, you have to consider what inputs you wish to accept. If those inputs are ordered (Think, gears, nuts, bolts), the machinery required for each individual is relatively simple. Conversely, if you want to accept just about any input (Rocks, crude oil), the machinery in each individual must be complex enough to reprocess that input into forms it can use. In practice that means "robots" can't replicate in the wild until they start to look more like "cells". When you toss out the view of pre-processed parts, though, you start also questioning the environment: Is it stable? Or will you have shale this month and raw iron the next? In the latter, you start needing more heterogeneity within your population and a way to restore that heterogeneity across selection events. That means evolution, that means adaptation, that means mutations. That means a way to kill your "off" switch.
Is forwardslash a robot? I've never met him in the flesh, so you would know better.
You've met him on skype. Of course, a robot could be impersonating him.
You once replied to a blog of mine that told a story about fslash. Can robots fall in love while playing vgames? Anyway, you gave away mk's secret. When he says I am currently working on changing the edit functionality
he means he sends the work to fslash.
Very clever evil plan, spreading out the upwheels over TWO posts! Just kidding. Nice list! I think I'm gonna make a new (or renewed) version of that bar image because I can see all the little things wrong with it and it irks me. And because steel blue gradients are really nice to make stuff with.
