In the world of technology, a User is someone who uses a computer. More specifically, it's someone who asks stupid questions about the use of that computer.
In the context of this blog, a Pool refers to an available supply, the use of which is shared by a group.
My job is to provide technical support to these users, many of whom are female. That's where things get a little messy...

iPhone "Catch a Cheater" Feature
Tuesday, July 15, 2008 at 05:24PM The new iPhone not only has 3G and custom apps, it also allows you to catch your dirty, rotten 
cheating lover. Here's how Blair tried to do it to me:
Blair somehow found a store during lunch on Friday that had iPhones in stock. She picked one up for herself then called me and asked if I wanted her to pick one up for me too. I immediately knew something was wrong. Blair does not do anyone any favors, least of all me.
Even though it's against policy, she convinced the clerk to do it for her. Blair can be a very charming person if she wants to be. It certainly helps if you don't know her.
All the clerk needed was my phone number and the last four digits of my social security number.
That was an immediate red flag. But since I really wanted an iPhone and didn't see much of a risk (what was she going to do? Steal my identity and run up my credit cards?), I gave her the digits.
By the time I got the phone, she had already activated it for me. Once again, favors are not Blair's forte.
I started playing with the phone and quickly realized one application had already been downloaded for me by my gracious lover. It's an app called "Whrrl". Here's the description:
Whrrl lets your friends light up your map based on the places they go in the real world. You can zero in on what they are up to right now, plus their past visits.
Apparently, Blair didn't think I'd notice this application. She also thought that since I wouldn't notice this application, she'd be able to track my every move. She further thought she'd be able to verify if I was home like I said I'd be. She even further thought she'd be able to catch me cheating on her.
Well, it was certainly worth a try. An application my wife also would've been interested in checking out.
I disabled the feature of course. But if you and your lover both have the iPhone and he/she has downloaded a bunch of apps--he/she might not notice one more called "Whrrl". And then you can catch that dirty, rotten cheater.
Looks like I'm safe for now.
