Weblog:   OpenOffice.org Saves my Day, Again
Subject:   Um...Open Office?

As an O'Reilly contributor catering to a heavily geek crowd, shouldn't he have at least taken the time, before writing this article, to realize that Open Office is a trademarked name and that the office suite that is the basis for Sun's StarOffce is actually called OpenOffice.org?

    I corrected the article, and also my previous OpenOffice.org article. I must say though, that going forward this ".org" business will be a losing battle. The words "OpenOffice dot org" are just too much of a mouthful for the average man-on-the-street to want to bother with.
