This sounds cool, but the name is unfortunate due to Google's gemini
Not the project's fault, given that it came out four years earlier.

And the star system and sign. Naming projects after very common words (or even worse, just letters or numbers) is really stupid as it makes searching for them or discussing them difficult and context sensitive and prone to fail.
To be fair I thought from the start that the world wide web was a pretty stupid name but it did okay.
