    :monster: i[INSERT YOUR PRODUCT/COMPANY NAME HERE]

    Who else is rather tired of the "i ______" trend among companies?

    I mean, hell, Mitsubishi is now making a god damn car that follows this forsaken trend... What the smurf?


    Post your opinions on the i _____ phase/phenomenon and/or other trends found within the business or media world.

    There's a biography of Steve Jobs called iCon. This would be fine, except I always read that as "I Con". Damn grifters. >_>

    Uh yeah I see where you're coming from Nommy. But rubah's right, it's going to happen.

    This reminds me of when a certain awful fanfic writer who shall remain nameless for your sanity, referred to an item of make-up as 'iShadow', and some reviewers were like, 'Is that a new product from Apple?'

    On topic: BBC iPlayer = <3

    I actually thought it was going to be a critical, scathing biography until your clarified it wasn't "I Con." xD

    It annoys me too, but I don't see it going away so I guess I'll just have to tolerate it.

    any product that starts with lowercase i followed by capitalized Name just reeks of overhyped pile of crap to me.

    Anyway, it's just an example of a meme gone too far.
