This is so silly, there are A LOT of people with unusual or fake-sounding names. A funny one I remember from personal experience...I used to work in a sporting goods store and one day when I was ringing up customers a man handed me his credit card to pay and the name on the card caught my eye, in raised gold letters: "MR. WANG DONG." ;p
Oh goodness, I imagine I might face some confusion and trouble ahead!

In other news, Facebook was the luckiest rather than the best duck in the pond, and it shows in the choices they make.
Yeah, I still liked using it best pre-apps. It was a fast, legible, efficient, all-around pleasant to use myspace alternative. Between the endless invites, long, messy pages, pointless add-ons, and now the poorly received redesign it does feel like a long time since they've actually made any good changes.
what is everyones problem with the redesign anyways?
That's actually a good question. I haven't been on facebook much in a while but last night I decided to go and investigate the situation. I was actually pretty impressed by how things have changed and I think I'll be logging on more often.
As for the recent redesign, they had to do something to get everyone's profile organized, readable, and consistent again (while still giving people the ability to customize things and add apps) and they actually did a really fine job. It may be a little confusing and disorienting at first when you're expecting everything to be on a single page, but once you realize your profile is now made up of several different distinct pages (wall, info, etc.) it makes perfect sense and works smoothly.

I'm sorry but I didn't understand any of that.
