Under: How To Know What To Use
The Web 2.0 generator of the day is called BuzzPhraser. The BuzzPhraser generates TechnoLatin. For those of you who don’t know what TechnoLatin is, here is an explanation from Doc Searls.
The virtue of TechnoLatin is that it describes just about anything technical. The vice of TechnoLatin is that it really doesn’t mean anything. This is because TechnoLatin is comprised of words that are either meaningless or have been reduced to that state by frequent use. Like the blank tiles in Scrabble, you can put them anywhere, but they have no value. The real value of TechnoLatin is that it sounds precise while what it says is vague as air. And as easily inflated.
The BuzzPhraser is a wonderful waste of time you might otherwise spend being productive, or in TechnoLatin it is a, “Productively Unique Interactive Extensible Position Framework” perfect for, “Optimally Balanced Neutral Quality Strategy Network Utilization.”
