What’s in a Name?
I’ve been asked to assist people with naming games, companies or services a number of times over the years, either just to friends and associates or specifically because work activities required it.

WTF is that headset?
Since 2013, when the Oculus Rift DK1 (Development Kit 1) KickStarter backer rewards first arrived in the Make Real studio, I’ve been collecting selfies of me wearing various VR (Virtual Reality), AR (Augmented Reality) and MR (Mixed Reality) headsets. I’ve used and updated this photo over the last 11 years and used it for social media profile banner images, intro slides and more. Every time someone points at one of the headsets and asks “WTF is that headset?”
