"Oh my god, what have we done?" came to mind. However, the more I thought about it, the more I loved it and now I can't believe how much it continues to sink into the powerful MEC staff culture. I love that it is neither English nor French so doesn't need translation. I love when people use it as a verb - "Oh, Mondo that file" Mondo mountains. Mondo waves. Mondo climbs. Now Mondo intranets :) When I walked into the meeting room where the panel of judges had picked between the 120 submitted names for our intranet, only to be told that they had chosen ‘Mondo’, I momentarily froze. “Oh my god, what have we done?” came to mind.

The last of the three bulleted links at the end of this blog post isn't working, at least for me... Otherwise, a great, concise, helpful, enjoyable article. Hi Chris.
