Blue is my favourite colour and at the time of deciding it, I heard the name Elvis somewhere and hence the concatenation. Would love to see the others ^_^

Tekno Venus Senior Administrator, Developer Staff member Joined Jul 21, 2012 Posts 7,199 Location UK Oct 25, 2014 #4 I've actually received a few questions about mine from various people. When I was younger (~10 I suppose), I created an account on the MSN Games website [on an aside, I just went to the MSN games site and it hasn't changed at all since I used to go there! MSN Games - Free Online Games. And now I may just have to play a few of those old games, spent so long on that site when I was younger]. The site automatically generated a username for you - mine was Rounded_Venus. Fast forward a few years and I want to register on a website but can't think of a name. For some reason, I remembered the Rounded_Venus name and changed Rounded to Tekno since it was a tech based site. I originally always used the underscore, but dropped that after a while. Hence Tekno Venus. It's quite a useful name, because I never have issues with it being already taken. Searching "Tekno Venus" into Google with the quotation marks and the only results are things from me (you're all going to do that now, aren't you? ) -Stephen

Nope. I used Bing and you'll be happy to know that your blog came up first in the results, followed by a link to your Sysnative profile.
