The Rudnick is switching into Social Sciences Researcher Mode again. Mostly because he's been reading Marty's copy of Sex/Machine, which is this big collection of cultural studies essays about gender/technology interactions...

Not that you guys are any sort of representative sample, but... could you comment up some responses? I'm curious:

- Does your computer have a name?
- Do you tend to anthropomorphize your computer?
- Do you normally name and/or anthropomorphize your things?

Yes, yes, and yes.

My computer has a name, and so does my iPod, and so does my car, and so does my other computer.

My things all have distinct personalities.

I cried when Ben (my car) broke down yesterday. He's a good car and I love him.
