Title

How do you feel about the blog title?

I like it, but the inclusion of the word "diary" takes on a certain connotation online. It almost sounds little too emo/livejournal for my liking. The writing ought to be reflective and open-ended, but not necessarily deeply personal and expressive.

Thoughts? Any other ideas on what this should be called? Or do we like the current title?

Hey now, no slagging on the LJ crowd! Kidding...

Yeah, "diaries" is a bit too high-school; I'd suggest maybe "journal" or even "files", if you like the way that sounds.

I think this is a great idea, personally. Good on ya, Phil, for thinking it up!

"The Tutor Files" is an improvement, but it sounds almost like the name of a crime drama situated in a writing centre.

"Journal" is better, perhaps, but we might be mistaken for a peer-reviewed academic journal.

Maybe we could forego the whole journal/diary moniker and just call it "Laurier Tutors Online"...or something of that ilk.

You say that like it's a bad thing XD.
