Some day, this will be a "Last.fm/NetFlix/Amazon for web fiction" (both original and fanfiction) where you can search across many different hosting sites or rate what you've read and get recommendations. However, life keeps throwing more urgent projects my way, so I don't know when it'll be ready.

[SUPPLEMENTAL]

I just finished looking through the computer on the history of alcoholic beverages.  And I can’t believe it.  The reason Twilight Sparkle can’t find a proper translation for her Apple friend’s name is because the translation doesn’t work directly.  She was looking for the direct translation that kept leading her to the words ‘health’ and ‘vigor.’  But given the nature of pony names, there’s almost always a certain ironic meaning to their names that match their personalities.  For ‘Cowgirl’, her name translates to Apple ‘health’, but that doesn’t seem to make the right kind of sense.  Not with names like ‘Rainbow Dash’, and ‘Twilight Sparkle.’  Those names seem to strangely fit like socks and shoes...  ‘Apple Health’ does not.

But there is one thing that fits, it also happens to be an alcoholic beverage that fits the theme of her name and personality perfectly.

‘Apple Jack.’

And the word ‘Jack’ itself according to the computer records once meant ‘health’ and ‘vigor’.

When I tell Twilight tomorrow morning, her mind will probably be blown.
