As Darryl pointed out here first on a Tucows internal blog, this Eliyon thing just doesn't work at that well - unless I somehow missed the period of time that Kobe Bryant and Mac Astronomica were on Tucows' board of directors.
Eliyon Technologies. This company is building a database of people in corporate America via search technology and the Web. The good news is that a directory like this has never been built. The bad news is that it in combination with other data sources (financial etc.), this could be very dangerous. Bruce Sterling's data pirates in "Islands in the Net" ($0.50 on Amazon) added a twist to this: they bought up data from defunct online firms to find out what people were using for passwords, etc.
"To stupidity and beyond!"
Indeedy.
I find it even more interesting that Harley Davidson Fatboy was the FOUNDER of TUCOWS! And who knew that Sherlock Holmes sat on the board?
Fascinating!
Actually, for some more "conventional" (businesses that are not run online) companies, the results seem to be at least fairly accurate. I tried a couple that I've worked for in the past, with generally reasonable and correct results. Certainly a web-intensive business like TUCOWS presents far more opportunities for Eliyon to misinterpret what's out there.
