Voip Tech Chat

Mentioned on the May 15th “Special” Voip Tech Chat, visitng the Social Security Administration website can help determine the popularity of a name. How can the government help determine popularity?

Using the most accurate and advanced tools available (listen closely — you can hear Fred and Patrick laugh heartily), the US Government provides an accurate rank, by basically checking the birth year, sex, and comparing that to the top 1000 names registered with the Social Security Administration (SSA).

Unlike Google, the SSA doesn’t apply any fuzzy logic or comparison techniques. (On a side note, Fred and Patrick love fuzzy logic more than non-fuzzy logic. We find it more cuddly and lovable) We digress… What we mean here… is searching for Fred and searching for Frederick will provide two different results.

Frederick and Patrick have been steadily declining in the last 15 years. That being said, Patrick is a much more popular baby name.

Most popular baby names in the 1970’s? Michael and Jennifer

The 1980’s? Michael and Jessica

The 1990’s? Michael and Jessica

The 2000’s? Jacob and Emily

Go know.

But, don’t take our word for it… check out the SSA’s Popular Baby Name website today. It’s no Voip Tech Chat, but it’s a good waste of time nonetheless.

In this week’s voip cast, we have a special guest in Fred’s studio — Patrick!! Patrick joins Fred for a face to face voip chat with topics covering Tom Petty, Kid Rock, Earth Day Birthday, and a hammer.

Did you know that Paula Abdul had a hit with Rush, Rush? Not Fred, he lost a hammer thinking it was Hush, Hush.
