For a book that adds new things to a universe: -Augmented Reality A few variations: -Augment -Universal Augmentation -Reality Augment I also like Rhyx's wonderfully simple 'Panopticon'

Re: Help Us Name the Next Book
That's brilliant. Unfortunately, I think it's also going to be one of the chapter titles. (What could it be? What could it be about?! Heh...)

@-Cookbook That's the best I can come up with. I like just calling it Panopticon.

Re: Help Us Name the Next Book
The Scum Guide to the Solar System (don't Panic)? More seriously, why don't present the book as a Firewall manual/aid for new sentinels, like "Firewall Technical Review 1: Uplifts, Habitats and Panopticon"? In a more software related trend, DLC Pack 1 was a good idea.

Re: Help Us Name the Next Book
Panopticon really is a very good name. Along with sousveillence, it is a word that most people don't know, but upon reading it feel like they should know.

In expansion to my earlier suggestion, Livestock. I would like to add: Live Support Where the multiple meanings aren't hidden as much. And it can't be (mis)interpreted as an anti-Uplift racial Slur.

Ooh. I like Live Support. Covers all three categories when you think about it, although it could also hold a lot more. Could also be the name for a mesh publication in general if you wanted to go the series route.

Re: Help Us Name the Next Book
Livestock does cover all that too, except: Live Support = Hotfix. A Hotfix could be defined as Support that is given while a System is "live" => Live Support I like Live Support more now, after all Livestock might be too much of "Harhar, Look we're being clever"

*Topic Unrelated Though I'll admit, both Panopticon and Live Support are good as well

Live Support gets my vote; it neatly encompasses it all. Colin

Re: Help Us Name the Next Book
If you want to continue the viral theme, the life cycle is: 1. ATTACHMENT 2. PENETRATION - OK, probably not this one... 3. UNCOATING 4. TRANSCRIPTION & TRANSLATION (this is my fav: Early Events prime system for taking over the host metabolism and preparing for replication. Late events result in the synthesis of new viral components.) 5. (GENOME) REPLICATION 6. LATE TRANSCRIPTION & TRANSLATION 7. ASSEMBLY 8. RELEASE as well as ECLIPSE PERIOD(phase) and LATENT PHASE, CAPSID/CAPSOMER, GENETIC DRIFT... If you want to add computer viruses, you can add ACTIVATION, DISCOVERY, ASSIMILATION, ERADICATION, ZERO-DAY, DROPPED FILES, EXPLOIT and oh, I dunno...BOOT SECTOR? Or you could go the software route and call it a Maintenance Release, Remote Admin, Batch Files, ETC...

Re: Help Us Name the Next Book
Thanks everyone for all of the great responses -- we were overwhelmed and impressed by the amount of feedback! After some deliberation, we decided to focus on single word titles (in keeping with the practice we've had) and narrowed it down to four main contenders: Hotfix, Memecast, Panopticon, and Solarchive. And the winner is ... (insert drumroll) ... Panopticon! Congratulations to Rhyx who made the suggestion! Thanks again everyone!

If the book designers don't use these, I will use them for something. Awesome name possibilities.

It may not have won, but this suggestion is awesome. Someone has to find a way to work this in to EP somewhere.
