Cowbird · FAQ
Why do you call it Cowbird?
We chose the name Cowbird to express the combined qualities of a cow and a bird.Cows are slow, steady, and grounded, while birds are fast, free, and full of joy.
Most of the Internet — including websites like Facebook and Twitter — are all bird and no cow, while more traditional formats like novels and operas are all cow and no bird.
Cowbird combines these two extremes to form a new kind of storytelling medium — mixing the slow, deeply rooted, contemplative idea of a cow with the fast, efficient, playful idea of a bird.
