With the common misnomer of using Warpcast and Farcaster interchangeably, I wonder how much it might have helped switching the -er. Farcast: sounds like a noun, abstract Warpcaster: sounds like a tool like ruler, calculator, etc.

Maybe so, but "farcaster" is named after a specific technology in the Hyperion books. It would be kind of weird to mess with that.

what does that technology do on the books? how does what is happening here reflect that?

It's an instantaneous teleportation device. Basically a door you walk through that takes you to another door somewhere else in the galaxy when you walk through it. I don't really know how that relates to a social network, other than connecting people who are far apart from each other. It sounds cool, though.
