Man, are you guys easily hoodwinked! "Anand" is actually a fictitious name. This site is named after a sentence, actually. A sentence spoken during a staff meeting of one very large telecom company. Someone said (and I quote):


...an adventurous person would just take on and create a PC technology-based website, and give the tech-heads what they want!"

And out of that staff meeting, the name of this site was born. The very few pics you've seen of "Anand" are actually just some guy that was an editorial assistant in the advertising department of that telecom company. Somebody said "can I take a few pictures of you?" The nameless guy just shrugged.

Sheesh, people...get real.

Somebody at that very large telecom company needs to take a very large grammar class - because that sentance in a telecommunication world SUCKS. ;)

Well excuse me, MR. ANALGRAMMAR Person. I should have said "sentence fragment." Sheesh; some people need to rotate that stick they have up their cornhole, and let the bad things come out......

First of all, it's called a joke. Look up humor and satire in the dictionary.

Second of all, "sentance" is not a grammar mistake; it's a spelling mistake.

apparently my sarcasm is lost upon you... you see that wink at the end of my post? It implied that I got your joke and was making a similar one. I'll be sure never to post anything remotely humourous in any thread you've posted in since it seems to aggravate you very much :frown:

I guess I should have qualified who I was speaking to. I just hit "quote" and went from there. The bit about it being a joke was directed at MichaelID. Sorry for the mixup. Oh, and I'm not aggrivated. :) I'm perfectly dandy :)
