Thought for the Day
Every Decade Has a Letter.
Each of the last three decades had a “letter” that defines the branding of online services:
1990’s: “e” (Electronic)
- eCommerce
- eMusic
- eWeb
- eSearch
- ePortal
- eOnline
- etc…
2000’s: “i” (Internet)
- Apple products: iPhone, iTunes, iPod, etc..
- iWeb
- iSearch
- iPortal
- iOnline
- etc…
2010’s: “x” (???)
- xWeb
- xSearch
- xPortal
- xChange
- xOnline
- etc…
I hereby predict that the 2020’s letter is “q” (quantum / quick):
- qWeb
- qSearch
- qPortal
- qOnline
- etc…

- Cthulhu will, in turn, flash a gang sign to the ancient Egyptians
- The ancient Egyptians randomly pick a hieroglyph
- The hieroglyph has nothing to do with anything
- Pick some TurboTax edition at random
- Pay $30 more than you planned.
