If I bought a laptop in Boston, and it came up with the username of Mark Bao... I'd give Mark a call instantly and ask him what was up.

Its not like Mark is a hard guy to Google for or unknown in Boston.



A few of my friends live in Boston and work in tech. Do you think if I asked them who Mark Bao was, they would have any clue at all?


I asked a bank agent whose last name was Schmidt if she was related to Eric Schmidt. Her response: "Who is he? Is he famous?"


I am Yuhong Bao, and has no relationship to Mark Bao at all.


I've never heard of Mark Bao before today, and I might forget his name by the afternoon.

This is like people who, when told I'm from Russia, ask me if I know Dmitriy. Why, yes, I know several dozen.


Of course they mean the RaphaelJS author!
