During our hilarious lab section today in which we tortured four hapless students, Xuan coined a named for our team. She said she noticed last night that the little power buttons on computers look like I's inside O's, so we should call ourselves IO Games and that our logo could be that little power button design thingy. Eric pointed out that IO also means input/output from a programmer's perspective, so the name IO carries a clever double meaning. Then I added a useless anecdote about how Io is also a moon of Jupiter and the name of one of Zeus' mistress who wound up getting turned into a cow and doomed to be chased by a gadfly across Asia Minor for the rest of her cow life. I'm glad I bring so much to the table for our group.
Anyway, the point is that we have our team name. We are officially... IO Games. Has a nice ring to it, yes?
