Site Name
Keywords: SL description
What's in a name? Why on earth is this site called Sensei's Library?The idea is that eventually (in many years from now) SL will contain all Go wisdom available. (food for thought: think of the treasured archives of go houses, think of old wise man, think of "best of rgg" <- actually this is how it all started many moons ago) So, just like in a library you will find a vast collection of information. (btw, I don't find libraries dull). And Sensei, well what's bad about a teacher ?-) Actually, (Japanese literate may correct me here), I was under the impression that sensei has more of a meaning as 'the first of pupils' or 'he who leads' - I suppose it's the oriental way of making a title humble-sounding? Hopefully, SL will become the font of much (all ?-) Go knowledge on the web... JanDeWit writes: I was under the impression that 'issei' meant 'first generation' or something like that. But you probably can't trust science fiction books! Any students of Japanese around? --JanDeWit I like the name. And the little cartoon is darn cute, too. --FCS
On a side note, a thinko (and lack of bookmarking) recently
led me to type And while you (we as of now :-) are at it, how about senseislibrary and senseilibrary? Claiming space ahead of your opponent is what the game's all about, isn't? --JanDeWit MortenPahle: Hi Jan. Just to answer your last comments: as long as we stay within the domain xmp.net we are safe - everything is ours for the picking. Adding a general link to SL from other parts of the domain is a good idea. This is a copy of the living page "Site Name" at Sensei's Library.
