Introducing "Naming Conventions"

Introducing "Naming Conventions"

Hi Marketo,
I would like to introduce you to "Naming Conventions".  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Naming_convention

Your first lesson:
Apply the concept of Naming Convention, to the various aspects of the design studio.

"Content Blocks" / "Sections" / "Divs" / "Body text blocks"

 Guess what everybody! These are all the same thing! So lets call them ONE name.

Apparently there is not a standard name for the concept of a  "Content Block" / "Section" / "Div" / "Body text block"
The learning videos call them Content Blocks, ( Oh, and those learning videos... they don't tell me anything about how to create and configure  "Content Blocks" / "Sections" / "Divs" / "Body text blocks"  If they had told me, I would not have been looking for an hour and counting, on how to configure these, and I wouldn't have found all their extra names)
the Design studio calls them Sections,
They involve html <div> tags, a
nd yet this tutorial calls them "Body text blocks"

Says this near the intro:
However, if you want to mix two or three kinds of content, you will need to add more body text blocks to your email.”

Also,
Although the Dynamic Content video has chapters:
  1. Overview
  2. Segmentations
  3. Snippets
  4. Dynamic Emails
  5. Dynamic Landing Page
  6. Email Template
 
Somehow, the planners of this video fail to recognize that there is a leap from Creating Snippets, to Inserting Snippets into "Content Blocks" / "Sections" / "Divs" / "Body text blocks", but it does not inform the viewer how one actually creates the "Content Blocks" / "Sections" / "Divs" / "Body text blocks" into which Snippets are inserted.
 
Seems like there was a big step left out:
“Creating and Configuring Content Boxes” should be a chapter in this video series.
