Given all of the hype and buzz lately around Sarah Palins new book Going Rogue, how long until we see the term or phrase used in IT? After all, we saw some jump on the cash for clunkers theme. I wonder who will be the first to jump on the Going Rogue or rogue theme bandwagon. Here are a few ideas that might stimulate some thought, or, to keep an eye out to see who jumps on the bandwagon.

I think you mean "Rogue", not "rouge".
Um, I think you meant "rogue" (as far as "rouge" is concerned, applying liberal amounts of makeup to otherwise plain products has long been standard practice for IT vendors).
Just wanted to point out that it's "going rogue", not "going rouge". They are different nouns entirely :-)

However will update to include both Rouge and Rogue depending on your preference ;).
Cheers and thanks for the comments.

Aaaargh! You've gone rogue on all those terms as keywords, which are dead to anyone else now ;-)
Ah dont worry Simon, feel free to go ahead and use them, either with rogue or with rouge or both if you prefer.
After all, how many times a day do you hear about something unique, industry first or only not to mention revolutionary.
Modify to fit and suit your needs as long as you can have some fun with it, or, see who else uses it and than have some fun with that.
So go ahead and be the first down under to run with them and have some fun ;)

Rouge is a French word for Red...
When you are not happy...you turn red...:-)
I'm going all red on alphabetization in french.
Would that make you dah Red Rappa?
