my grandfather, a food scientist, once told me the answer to this question is: eating. since a good part of humanity is starving, i assume that's the answer for lots of people.

was going to answer sincerely .. then realized it was a jab fest... so I'll ponder something sarcastic and witty.

I think the question is flawed. Meaning implies conscious intent. That means you were born for a conscious purpose. One's parents may conceive you with specific intent/hopes, but you have the right to accept or reject that and assign your own purpose to your life.

Unless, Tanath, you believe in a higher being who specifically creates each individual, and has a reason for doing so.

@klecu, the evidence suggests we all have parents.

to create meaning in life; to make life meaningful; to live a meaningful life.

Meaning is as artificial as the world we create for ourselves. Life is life. Death is death. And we are all human. We are the only intelligent beings on this planet capable of perceiving our own existence -- who can shape our own existance -- present, and future... based on whatever principles, politics, beliefs, ideas, sciences, etc that we have established for ourselves in the past, and based on what we do in the present. What we believe in shapes what we define as meaning.

The universe aligns so that you're born, you align the universe to succeed, and then… you die. But you leave a heritage through a well-lived life.

The future is yours to create, if you so choose. The moments to come are yours. Let no one steal them from you. Guard them with your life, because that is exactly what they are.

that is under a gig but a lot more than 200mb (just found out it is 200 not 250mb). do you consider than normal use or is that downloading apps, streaming music etc?
- CJPhoto
that's doing everything - streaming from last.fm/pandora, downloading & installing apps from the app store, checking 7 email accounts - fairly busy use
- Nathan Chase
hmm.. I guess it also depends on how many wifi spots you connect to during the day. I don't think you would want to use it purely on the 3G connection.
