Dear Microsoft: your names for Windows 10 updates aren’t memorable, and therefore impossible for humans to keep track of. You know what humans can keep track of? Dogs.
Windows 10 is great, by the way. We’re loving all the new features we get every six months or so.
But the names for these updates all suck. I mean, look at this list:- November Update
- Anniversary Update
- Spring Update
- Creators Update
- Fall Creators Update
- April 2018 Update
I made up one of these, but I can’t remember which. And that’s the problem. These names are so generic they’re useless. If I see a headline saying you’re dropping support for “November Update,” I have no idea what that means. I might think it’s coming out this November (It came out two Novembers ago). And if I lived in Australia the “Fall Creators Update” came out in the spring, which is just awful.
You can fix this, Microsoft. Give your updates names that are easy to remember. Names with personality. Names with universal appeal.
Name your Windows 10 updates after dogs.
Seriously, Microsoft: Dogs
You think we’re joking. We’re not. Apple and Canonical both used animal names to great effect, and a decade later I still remember which versions “Breezy Badger” and “Snow Leopard” refer to….
