Title: Hrm...Pandora?
Post by: Jessie on January 03, 2007, 04:00:16 PM
How does Pandora always know I'm me, even when I delete my cookies?  By IP?  Some super powerful undeletable cookie?

Many people believe that it was an allegory for a woman, and her box was her vagina.  That vaginas are the cause of all the world's problems.

Pandora.com is the best invention since sliced bread.

It knows who you are by retinal identification. You do know that your computer is looking at you through your screen, don't you?

it has an embedded flash app, and flash has it's own cookie-like facility.  it's probably remembering you through that.
