fbrunel says Jun 02, 2008 04:47AM You know what Robert, I think all social networks should reserve an account for you
mike626 says Jun 02, 2008 04:50AM I'm sure Plurk will address it if you ask, or if you write a scathing review.
DeborahMicek says Jun 02, 2008 05:53AM if Scobleizer is trademark protected - I say - go AFTER the name "squattin-unoriginal-thief" not as popular as you!
Doug_Quance says Jun 02, 2008 06:29AM That was totally uncool. I fell for it, too. Time to pull that friend request...
Rosana says Jun 02, 2008 07:04AM Ugh, I hate identity stealing idiots. Maybe they just did it to annoy. But there are also ppl who do it to impersonate as someone else.
Ourfounder says Jun 02, 2008 07:20AM I am about to launch a new line of scobelizer crackers and cheese snacks.
bloggersblog says Jun 02, 2008 07:33AM you should trademark it Robert. Filing fee is only a few hundred and can be done online although lawyer costs much more.
the JoshMeister thinks Jun 02, 2008 07:51AM username squatters are lame. The main reason I signed up for Plurk so early was to prevent others from stealing my username.
Rosana has Jun 02, 2008 09:04AM to agree with theJoshMeister here. Even if I wouldn't be using Plurk as much, I'd still want to claim my name before someone else does.
TJCS63 says Jun 02, 2008 10:01AM Hope you get it back soon. Having a consistent name on the various platforms is key to building your brand
edemtim says Jun 02, 2008 01:33PM this is the real scoble account, because he has linked to it from his twitter account.
GeekMommy says Jun 02, 2008 07:19PM the Scoble on FF says this is the real one - that's good enough for me
dhinchcliffe thinks Jun 02, 2008 07:40PM there are two reasons to use new Web apps. 1) To check them out and 2) to prevent name squatting.
Rosana thinks Jun 03, 2008 12:01PM dhinchcliffe is right. I register for at least for two reasons, those two reasons to be precise.
Tom says Jun 03, 2008 12:25PM I registered my name as soon as I heard about plurk. Nobody cares about me, but you can't be too careful.
Rosana thinks Jun 03, 2008 12:26PM that sounds rather sad tobyk. I'm sure there are people who care about you
