in Spanish it is Búsqueda Spotlight I'm pretty sure Búsqueda is a noun since a search engine is motor de búsqueda

why am i searching a spotlight? i want to search my files, contacts, etc. why is the search icon a magnifying glass but it's called spotlight? this doesn't make any sense.

whole lotta mental gymnastics going on itt are you sure you wouldn't just rather use cortana? i mean it's called "cortana" and its icon is a double ring, there's nothing even conceptually related to search in there. it's authentically digital

Cortana is also a verb now. Cortana can Cortana. Truncate the second Cortana and you're left with simply Cortana - indicating its name and also its function. Simple. Perfect. Authentically Digital.

As I walked away from my computer to put on clothes for the day, I continued ruminating on this point, about Cortana, and realized that what I've actually described is the pitch for Bing

Stymie posted:isn't the whole "authentically digital" thing essentially what apple did moving away from ios skeumorphic designs? Yes, but I think its an entire industry trend. I'm not an expert, but I think MS was the vanguard with Windows 8, then Android and Apple followed suit with Material Design and whatever Yosemite's theme is called respectively. Then again, I don't follow this stuff closely...

"Cortana" is over. the kids just say "cort" now. next season you can expect microsoft to pay for product placement putting "cort" front and centre in popular tv shows with the youth like arrow and reign.
