  1. Stop Button on Interview With The Creator of Napster on ZDnet · · Score: 1

    Yes, please, for the love of God, give us a stop button in the search menu!

    Seriously, that is my only real complaint with the user interface, besides locking the user out of the program until the login process either loads or they hit 'cancel,' and the fact that the 'X' button doesn't kill the program.

  2. Re:Car Names, Especially Toyota on The Corporate Lame Name Game · · Score: 1

    Actually, if I'm not mistaken, I think that the word "Corolla" actually conveys some meaning in Japanese. I think it's something to do with gardening, but of course I could just be hallucinating.

  3. A truly bad product name on The Corporate Lame Name Game · · Score: 1

    The Chevy Nova, i.e. "The car that you knew Latin America will never buy."

    While in English, it conjures up a good astronomical image, in Spanish it translates to "doesn't go/move." Kudos to the fine folks in Detroit for that gem.
