davidnRight, loyal readers (if there are any of you left. My livejournal has been the most boring thing in the universe for the last couple of months), I have an important announcement to make.
Unbelievable as it may have seemed a while ago, I've been trying to gradually get rid of the name "wongchungbang" for the last couple of years. It may have been a clever name when I discovered the Internet, but nowadays it just sounds like the noise a sack of cutlery makes when it falls down the stairs. At least, I think so - others aren't so sure, as I still keep getting IMs asking me what part of China I come from. New accounts anywhere are now normally being registered under the name "Wong" (or even plain old "DavidKN"), which does remove a bit of the Googlability of my name, but that's a sacrifice I'm prepared to make.
As I've been mooching off Livejournal's free service for the last three years now, I think it's an ideal opportunity to spend a bit of money on a Rename card, or whatever other RPG-item name it's called, therefore keeping my archive of posts and automatically refactoring all links/friends/etc. I'm proposing to change my LJ name to "davidknewton", or, at a stretch, "davidxnewton".
Any thoughts?
