[Poll] What is the name of this site?

I was perplexed about the real way to pronounce the name of TakingITGlobal.
If you think it's Taking It Global, then the abbreviation TIG is correct. However, if it's Taking I.T. Global, then the abbreviation should be TITG. Personally, I think it's Taking I.T. Global because the second T in the logo is in capitals (TakingITGlobal).
Just a thought.
How do you pronounce TakingITGlobal?
Taking It Global
(4 votes for 28.57%)
Taking I.T. Global
(10 votes for 71.43%)

It is Taking It Global. The "IT" in the middle is a play on words which can also be interpreted as "internet technology"
The reason it is a capital "IT" is because if you make the "t" in lower case, then the logo wouldn't look as good

And also because the IT is the super duper important and says 'please please mr and mrs designers, please capitalise me to reinforce my super duper importance so that all who are blessed in my sight may understand the super duper importance of my infinite interpretations.'
what does IT mean to you!

I had this perplexity as well, As an IT guy, I considered that IT denote Information Technology when I have first heard about TIG from my colleagues . But after my first visit I understood that this is broader than single focus but a vast resources for youth to access into many global programs.

since meeting so many tiggers, especially the guys from Toronto - I would say that it's 'Taking it Global', which has a much better ring to it than 'Takingit I.T. Global'.

I think "Taking It Global'' is easy to say.
This site is really about bringing new and practical INFORMATION on diverse creative projects and ideas globally eanbled through Technology (information technology)... by and for the youth and those who care about our young. It (ideas and information) could be anything people care about.
Watch the word I..N - F~ O ~ R ~ M ~ A..T..I..O..N ~ and see
the image of smoke coming out of mouth. I suddenly had this image in my mind and it occured to me that new information allows something new to take form or shape.
Love it and use it. No point getting hung up on names.
