Talk:Bacn (electronic)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Articles for deletion This article was nominated for deletion on August 24, 2007. The result of the discussion was keep.

I created this page becuase i had heard a Reference to the term and didn't know what it meant and searched for it on wiki, I then heard an explination on buzz out loud (http://podcast-files.cnet.com/podcast/cnet_buzzoutloud_082207.mp3) which explained what the term means.

I might not have written a great artical which needs improvements but i don't think it deserves deleation. lol hi of more references include: http://www.hill-kleerup.org/blog/2007/08/22/baconbaconbacon.html http://topazpartners.blogspot.com/2007/08/bacn-new-spam-but-how-it-can-be-good.html http://www.boingboing.net/2007/08/22/bacn_spreads_around_.html

Last artical claims that it was the 14th most popular search term on http://technorati.com/

Additionally I think that it is a good term, a bit like spam but bacon tastes nicer! —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Tommy turrell (talk • contribs) 16:47, August 23, 2007 (UTC).

Then how about you add your sources to the article and we'll take it from there? 1redrun Talk 16:50, 23 August 2007 (UTC)

i'm glad to see another entry made for Bacn. i originally created a stub after (similarly) hearing about it on a podcast and then following up with a little research. my article was promptly deleted but perhaps there's cause to keep it around? cheers, Spongebobsqpants 23:38, 25 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Regarding Deletion

I disagree with deleting this article. It may not be amazingly well written, or overly informative, but there's not much more that needs to be said about it. I read about it on a blog, and had no idea what it was, and several other blogs did no better job explaining it, so I went to wikipedia, and bam! there's the answer. That's what wikipedia is for. dimo414 23:31, 28 August 2007 (UTC)

I concur. Please don't delete the article- it may be a stub (and I just marked it as such) but it is useful and I expect it will grow into a proper article with time. --Treekids 06:20, 29 August 2007 (UTC)

I also agree in not deleting this article. Simply because as an Internet Marketer, I received several requests and articles in my email regarding BACN emails. I quickly hopped online to do some research, finding very little information about it's origin, etc. Webopedia, my prior definition-site of choice, had nothing on the term at all, but Wikipedia had as much information as I needed. As Treekids noted: It may presently just be a stub, but it will grow in time. Thanks. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 139.142.153.12 (talk) 15:20, August 29, 2007 (UTC)

This is nothing more than a forced attempt at a internet buzz word being hyped by some bloggers in pittsburgh. It will fade away in a few weeks and this should be deleted. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.7.247.208 (talk) 21:12, 12 September 2007 (UTC)

If that is the case we can delete it in a few weeks when it fades away. But until then, we should keep it, as it serves its purpose. JARS, Inc. | Talk 06:07, 9 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] What does bacn stand for, if anything?

Once I know what bacn "means", the only other thing I care about is what does it stand for -- or, if it's not an acronym at all, why is it "bacn" rather than "bacon"? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Kirkpete (talk • contribs) 11:41, 22 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Reference of origin

I too heard it came from some pod caster's convention, however, it there tangible evidence of this? Can we add a reference? --Dave Marcucci(talk) 20:23, 6 May 2008 (UTC)
