When visiting a friend last weekend, I mentioned as a side remark that lots of people never gave a thought to the name 'Edge' - similar to the old days when lots of people using the Lynx browser never associated it with anything but a big, wild cat. My friend knows a lot of math, including a fair amount of graph theory. Yet, he gave me a puzzled look: What do you mean? Is that name supposed to mean anything special?
Well ... Yes. Like Lynx. And the little Ford Ka (that's some years ago, isn't it?). And the arrow below the Amazon text in the logo. One common brand of Californian raisins imported to Norway had the brand name 'Sun Maid' (with a picture of a young woman carrying a basket of grapes) - my mother never ever would accept the idea that 'Sun Maid' was a play of 'Sun made', ripened in the sun. Marketing folks come up with lots of bright ideas in this class, and 99% of the audience ignores/overlooks it. I am sure that they are prepared for that  .
I guess that a fair share of the Lounge audience has had their share of graph theory. So let me ask: Have you ever been considering the name 'Edge' as related to hypertext graphs? Or are you considering it to be just a random name picked out of the blue?
(If you care to indicated whether you feel familiar with graph theory, that would be an interesting additional piece of information!)

In my part of the world*, a dissected plateau, there are many clifftop lookouts and walking trails.
There is a lot of signage encouraging people to keep away from the edge, which I consider excellent advice.
* The coincidence between my postcode and an ancient IBM RJE device/protocol I find amusing.

Reminds me of a service desk related software made by my earlier company in India. The product (launched in the late 90's) was aptly named as:
ServiceEdge

As in Edge computing, vertices, etc. Perhaps, it's an interesting thought
So it's not referring to the rounded corner design? Micro soft edge? :P

So, these days I have a few medical issues I'm working on... I try to login to my doctor's portal, and it's unable to handle Opera. Oh really? 40 years after all this got started, and you won't handle opera? Get it to come up in Edge - finally - and the f'ing icon is using my login information. I think not.
Off to vpn for me.
You're not paranoid if they really are listening and harvesting your data. I'm sure FISA will keep me safe.

OK I give up, what is a login photo?

when I pull up Edge on my base iron laptop, in the upper left of the browser, it seems to know who I am - my base Office 365 image is up there smiling at me. This appears to be the coordinated effort at MS trying to get me to login all the time. Not going to happen.

Sounds like the app might allow single sign-on (SSO).
I take it your log on to your computer login logs you on to your Microsoft account?

No sir, all of local accounts on machines are local, I refuse to use the MS based login. But I do think it has to do with Office 365 and Edge "cooperating."

Absolutely, they have only your interest and safety in mind.
