Ryan Pfisters: we’re not the only ones that share a name

Check out this New York Times article on people with the same name that keep track of each other on the Internet.

Obvious quote of the day:

“Why do so many feel a connection — be it kinship or competition — with utter strangers just because they share a name? Social science, it turns out, has an answer. It is because human beings are unconsciously drawn to people and things that remind us of ourselves.”
