Name The Search Engine Land Gossip Column!
Next week, Search Engine Land's gossip column launches. OK, so it's less gossip of the Valleywag style and more about "movers and shakers" and rumors stuff. Who is moving where? Who has already gone? What's about to be launched that everyone's trying to keep quiet?
We wanted to have a fun, good-spirited column to cover these types of tidbits. It's going to run twice per month to begin, compiled by a columnist whose identity shall remain secret.
Searchwag? Nah. Sure, it might be fun linkbait to get Valleywag's Nick Denton to come after us for using that name. But we're looking for something unique. Got the perfect name? Drop it in the comments below. Also say when you'd like to see this column. Mondays? Wednesdays? Fridays? What's the best day for this type of thing?
And got tips? Get thee to the contact form and use the All Editors option. Give us your email, and we'll keep it secret. Otherwise, just put in shh@searchengineland.com and we'll know you want to keep it on the SearchQT.
Postscript: GANG! Don't use the contact form to send column name suggestions. Put them in the comments below. Use the form to email us story tips for the column itself :)

The above SELander is a nice one.
Friday preferred.
Danny,
I don't have a name to throw out there. I do like the suggestion of SELander. Really ties it all together. Keep up the great work and the positive attitude.

Hey Brian Clark -
I don't know you, but I wrote my comment before reading what anyone else had said, to keep my mind fresh.
Lo and behold - I thought of exactly what you did.

How about something simple, using part of what you already own, such as Search Marketing Spy? Or Search Marketing Babble? The domains are even available.
