A new meme appeared recently at the NoSQL East meetup, suggesting that NoSQL should really stand for “Not Only SQL”.  This is a great improvement over plain-old “No SQL” moniker. 

However, while a double-negative making a positive, I'm hoping we can still collectively stumble upon a better label. I'll be talking about this at the “NoSQL is a horseless carriage” talk at tonight's NoSQL Oakland meetup: http://www.nosqloakland.org/ Hope to see you there.
