[edit] No reference to ActiveX monikers?

I was hoping to find info about ActiveX interface (IMoniker) but instead found a page about clowns...

I too was hoping to find information about ActivX interfaces - D

Try looking under Nerdipedia for the ActivX stuff chum - F

What is with all the clown stuff? We need more detail into the specifics of monikers, such as usage, and where it is derived from.

The derivation is confused - could be a romany word, apparently. Although I'm not sure if it's confusion over the Cockney Rhyming slang "Monica James" which rhymes with names - Hence "Monica" coming to mean a name, although there seems to be strong evidence that it is a dialect slang word, i've always assumend it comes from the rhyming slang.

[edit] Tyler Mandt

"Tyler Mandt is perhaps the best example of a "Moniker"". Google returns 68 results on "Tyler Mandt", none of which appear relevant. I am removing this claim. Stephen Kenny 21:00, 31 January 2007 (UTC)
