Ask HN: Can we please start calling NoSQL PostSQL?
NoSQL sounds really negative, Post-SQL has a better ring do it.. or maybe DROPless?

Since PostgreSQL is already a well known (relational) product, I don't think that PostSQL is viable terminology.
NoSQL databases can have their own Structured Query Languages. What they lack are relational capabilities, so something like NoJoi might be better. :-)
i'll take pre-sql for it, before i'll accept or use post-sql
I'd rather DumbSQL and SmartSQL personally
