It's EV not EI.

Alright well i never thought about that before, i don't see why it can't just be everyonesinternet.net.
I was looking at ev1.net, what it looks like some surfing site or something.
See you go there and see the forecasts, puts a downer on your day.

Ok another one to get your heads around.
Why call something Beta?, it's the most annoying word, can they not just call it a tryout or something more less annoying?.

Editorial: or call it a test.

True. It's (hopefully) better than the alpha version.
