"I will kill you, CCI." With just 20 characters (Twitter allowed him a generous 140), Ian McCann of The Dallas Morning News (@imccanntx) sent me scrambling to Google to figure out just WTF he was mad about. Here are the possibilities. Your guess is as good as mine.
- Clinton Climate Initiative: Mad at the weather? No one has cabin fever that bad.
- Canine Companions for Independence: Mad at his guide dog? Say it ain't so, Ian.
- California Criminalistics Institute: You'd think they might be after Ian, not the other way around.
- Custom Chrome, Inc.: I just can't picture Ian shooting up his tricked out Harley.
- Component Concepts, Inc.: Maybe this "quality paintball maker" sent Ian got a defective batch.
- CCI Ammunition: Another gun association. What's with the letters CCI anyway?
- Center for Collective Intelligence: On Twitter? Who are we kidding?
I don't often say this, but this time Google failed me. Help me out someone. What's the CCI that Ian McCann wants to kill?
Apparently, CCI is the publishing software used by The Dallas Morning News. I second Ian's desire to kill CCI, as I have shared the sentiment just being a reader of the DMN's Web site.
