The Charlotte Observer Looking for your suggestions: The Observer is planning for a cool new Facebook application that would be much more interactive than this current site. But, we need a name for it. Looking for a short, one-syllable name, like "Eye, from the Charlotte Observer" or "Blink, from the Charlotte Observer." Got a suggestion?
