 | View Full Version : Why the name? Acsiak - Andrew 10-30-2004, 09:44 AM http://dictionary.cambridge.org/define.asp?key=15820&dict=CALD I'm curious. We all know what con means - So why the chosen name of Hosting Con? Vortex-Steve 10-30-2004, 10:52 AM Short for Convention or Conferance surely? UH-Matt 10-30-2004, 11:00 AM As with most somethingCon's its a convention... duh... ;) :) m_php 10-30-2004, 11:03 AM Conferance perhaps or convention sirtwist 10-30-2004, 12:27 PM Yes, the Con on the end signifies "convention" or "conference" ... there are many examples of using Con on the end of the name to signify convention or conference, but a couple I can think of right now are ISPCON and DefCon. gghosting 10-31-2004, 11:00 AM I would believe conference.
