    One word: pogcasting.
    You think? Pogs went out with OK Soda and that Soul Asylum album everybody had. I don't think anybody really wants to listen to a radio show about pogs. But hell, I've been wrong before.

    It's both. Polaroid developed the method.

    Dear Perdida,

    You are quite correct - I did stray off topic. However, that was not because I am a troll, but rather because I was posting as an AC. It is difficult to keep ones mind on the salient points when one is not fearing the wrath of the moderaters.

    People do indeed come closer through email communication. I for example have gotten 2 internships and 80% of my freelance work through email.

    How ironic that your e-mail is Spam protected! You tell me you do not fear spammers, and that they do not affect you, and at the same time use an obvious cover e-mail address to illustrate your point! I find this most amusing.

    True, e-mail can be a good vehicle for making friends, as I have found out recently, but I fear it is in danger of being rendered useless as a communicative medium by the sheer signal to noise ratio that it suffers from. I know I would not give out my real e-mail address here on /., and my Hotmail address is swamped by superfluous nonsense.

    For myself, I find that 90% and up of my time sorting e-mails is spent sifting through piles of garbage. And I would love to sign up for informative newsletters and the like, but I cannot be assured that the spammers will not be sold the information. The problem in this regard is that e-mail is cheap.

    E-mail is like an ever growing organism. Every time you send an e-mail, you are sending the information that will allow you to be contacted. The small world theory means that it is almost impossible to keep an e-mail address secret.

    Anyway, back off-topic, I for one know you exist, Perdida, and I am happy to converse with you at any time.

    I am your friend too,

    KTB:Lover, Poet, Artiste, Aesthete, Programmer.
