My standing offer to take visitors out to sample a few in the piazza is always open.
As a german i find the name a bit unfortunate. To spritz = spritzen means to squirt/spray coat and in german is often associated with ejaculating. I don't know if this name would fly around here, but maybe thats why it would. Could make for some funny conversations.
Don’t spritz me you spritzin’ spritzer! (wtf?)
Will spritzing burn my retinas? (only if he spritzes in your eye...)
"Spritz" is a drink here in Padova where I live: http://padovachronicles.welton.it/2004/11/08/spritz http://padovachronicles.welton.it/2008/09/17/the-spritz-from... My standing offer to take visitors out to sample a few in the piazza is always open.

Looks like one of the founders is from Munich. Maybe he is just a little trolly.
Being trollish doesn't make your name any better. And yeah, I find the name very unfortunate as well, especially in combination with call to actions like "Click here to Spritz".

AFAIK Spritz is generally acknowledged in all Italy as a drink but it's a generic name. Different story is if you ask for an Aperol.
I compared it with the speed-reading app at spreeder.com, and Spritz's claims do seem to be born out. 500 wpm was a little too much for me at Spreeder, but with Spritz's improvements it became manageable.
Now. Where do I get this for my kindle? Add a play/pause button and a (continuous) knob to tune the speed (with reverse?). An option to jump back a sentence or a paragraph? Or show me the current position on the actual page? (Some way to make spacial position meaningful.) And I'm pretty sure I'm sold.

couldn't care less. it is first to file now, biatch.
Congratulations on being one of the millions of internet users who have no idea how the patent system works. First to file is purely for determining priority of an application; the date at which the patent office (or another patent office under the Paris convention) comes to know about the invention. It's used to resolve a) which prior art is relevant (anything published publicly before this date) and b) if two peopl…
According to (a) if someone files a patent first then if there is any prior art that and any subsequent patent applications will fail.
According to (b) if someone files a patent first then out of that and any later patent applications the first one will win.
Seems to fit with "first to file" to me.
