    facebook requires a school/work email account to sign up, therefor, they know if you are using your real name. Most company/school email addresses go along the theme of jDoe@aschool.edu or john.doe@acompany.net

  4. Re:Small is bad now? on The Worst Tech of Q2 2006 · · Score: 1

    As far as I could tell from the pictures on the review of the phone, its no smaller than mine, Audiovox CMD-8910. At least the width and hight look almost the exact same. If it is any flatter than my phone, I would love to have it. Even mine, for being rather compact, is still bulky sometimes.

  5. Re:cliche retort on Sony's Obsession with Proprietary Formats · · Score: 1

    You have a very valid point there. I had always thought that Sony wasn't the first to implement it into their video products. As for changing the name, at this point its better just to leave it. The average consumer, at least I think, would only be even more confused when they upgrade and think they cannot use thier old cords. There is also the point that not many people use Macs/ know that Mac calls IEEE1394 firewire. Also, is the term "iLink" only for the smaller, unpowered 4-pin ports, or do they use it for full sized 6-pin ports as well?

    "They even rename tech - iLink anyone - to make themselves sound different."

    That reminds me of the day my sister got a sony video camera. I remember her asking me what an "iLink" cord is. I thought to myself, "what the hell is iLink?" and went into her room only to see that the "iLink" port was really just a small firewire port. That is my story of the first time Sony became just another company trying to take in some customers by using the "i" infront of just about anything.
