Well, AMP was always named by accident. If you remember, I started AMP just to get a bit of code out there for MacUsers to use for interfacing iTunes and CoreData. I needed a name for the project and just said "AMP" as an acronym for "Aychamo's Media Player." I guess it kinda stuck!
Kindling meant a bit to me. I really like words that have multiple meanings. Kindling can be the embers that help start a fire. Medically, it refers to the phenomenom in which a repeated stimulus doesn't need to be as intense to cause a seizure, etc. Also, it's the name of a really great song that I was into at the time. It also represents where I'm at in my life right now, at the start of a (hopefully!) long career.
I dunno. A rose by any other name is still a rose, right?
