		<description>As a dog owner I naturally find Waggle Labs to be a delightful name, refering to that happy wagging tail we all love to see and one of the friendliest breeds, the Labrador Retriever.

Unfortunately, I don't know anything about bees, so the term "waggle" doesn't mean anything to me, and I think that's a terrible shame. How much confidence in your abilities to understand people and how they form groups when you use obscure terminology that most people don't know? 

Add to that the recent news about the crisis in bee culture (empty hives, thousands dead. the theory is is that they are being disrupted by radio waves - technologies which have given rise to this whole field of 'social networking)

On the other hand, I like Pathable; it's very clear what it's about. Making nouns into verbs usually bothers me, but like Chris, for some reason that doesn't bug me here. 

But I'd say you definitely have to "path" that social networking name again.
