    Correct me if I'm wrong, but "real" names won't improve anything over fake names in terms of concern over one's reputation, but I can see advertisers lick their fingers for that data.

    I doubt we'll be able to compete with Facebook in that market!

    I have been posting under my real name for a long time. I even put my phone number on the web: 1-510-4PERENS. And my email's on my web site. It doesn't get me additional advertising. I do get additional advertising from what I look at on some store web sites, though.
