April 1: Changing the Name of 7 Cups
As you all know, our community continues to grow and thrive. Since starting 7 Cups, we've seen you all engage in incredible community building activities. The number of supportive conversations continues to increase. In addiition to our growth, we have been doing some market testing on the "7 Cups" name. We've been thinking about our name quite a bit. Specifically wondering: how does the "7 Cups" name represent our community? How do people identify with this name? And does this name acurately represent our growth?
The market testing results were very clear. It is time for us to adopt an updated community and site name. In addition to the market testing results, we believe the name, "7 Cups," does not accurately represent our community growth. Therefore, it is with great excitement and pride, that i'd like to announce we are changing the name of our community "8 Cups"!
In the next week, you should expect to see the following changes:
1) Site URL will redirect you to 8cups.com
2) Updates to links and general communications
3) Rename the app & new app designs to reflect name change
4) A new community logo
We are excited to move forward with this change. Thanks everyone!!!
I forgot today was Aprli Fools xD. I was saying "8 Cups" out loud during class but settled saying "What were the admins thinking?" 7 Cups flows so nice. 8 Cups sounds so weird xD. Super glad this is just a joke:p
@Bebrave101
8 Cups would flow too if we were used to itqw
It* ignore the qw
@Emily619 it still sounds weird XD
@Bebrave101
7 Cups would sound weird if you weren't used to it :)
OK, you got me!
When I read this in my updates notification, I thought back to the URL change from 7cupsoftea.com to 7cups.com, and I figured this was just another progression along that line.
Well played.
@condemnedself - yes, I think that helped make the joke sneak into your brain... like "they did one crazy change already" :)
Good One. I was thinking I haven't learned how to utilize 7 cups let alone 8. Lol👍
7 , 8, or 20 cups of Tea...Happy April Fools Day!!!!! 😂😂😂😂😂 :) <3 :D :-P
@Laura This is a quite unique idea that you have started, and an amazing community! Something that TRULY makes the World a better place! So no matter what it is called, it will always be wonderful and blossoming in a world that needs more compassion and kindness.
Much Love to all the community!
This would suck because I start my chats with 'enjoying your tea?'
@Laura 8cups... why? What's the purpose? Why not 24cups because we're open 24 hours,
Got confused, checked the date, laughed
