How come Kyle is high on the most active user list, but his last post dates 1 Dec 2007? Can you become most active user by diligently using Cpod without ever posting? (This is no trick to get me on the user list - I am just curious...)

Yes, there is a problem with the MAU algorithm, it seems... We will look into it.

中文博客 MAU 算法跟谷歌差不多，又秘密又不断变化！ ChinesePod MAU algorithm is like Google, secret and constantly changing! 但是故意吗? But is it intentional?

And paranoia and paranoid? My dictionary suggests these three possibilities: 妄想狂 (wàngxiǎngkuáng)，偏执狂 (piānzhíkuáng) and 多疑症(duōyízhèng)

in psychiatry I guess it would be 妄想狂, 妄想症 (zhèng) or 偏执狂, 妄想 being 'delusion', and 狂 'mania'. Might be different for casual use, if common at all.

thank heaven Cpod is not an insurance company (remember GM, they didn't use the right algorithms and financed suv's to who couldn't sell them) or a drug company.

some drug companies are more risk-averse than insurance companies :-( ok, this is wildly irrelevant
