I couldn't remember what Spock was when I got an email few days back inviting me to sign up. So being a good alpha/beta testing whore, I signed up and then it hit me! (2 mins later)Spock is essentially a find-that-person Google service.
"Stalkerati, meet Spock"
It is still an invitation-only beta service, but if you're kind to me and won't waste an invitation, I have a few to spare.
Once signed in, it is very similar to Google. I, of course (like you will), "spocked" myself.
Wow, there are lots of "Thomas Han"s out there. In my case, I think there were 2 matches that might be me (guess which ones?). I went ahead and clicked on the "Claim, this is me!" link on both profile pages.
This is my theory. Because Spock found me on LinkedIn.com, in order to claim myself, they needed me to confirm that is indeed me, so they asked for my LinkedIn.com username/password.
Oh well, then I got bored and spocked Jobs. Didn't know our CEO's middle name is "Paul".
Update:
It turned out I entered the wrong LinkedIn.com email (user error!). I tried it again and this time I got. So hopefully now I can claim two of the "Thomas Han"s
Nope, no can do. After I got the verification email, clicked on the link and got this...
Cool, but on a good note. I just noticed that my review got picked up by Spock's "Buzz" on the right of their blog.

Hi Thomas,
This is Maia from Spock. I went ahead and merged your profiles together on Spock. All of your information is now on your profile. Sorry for the difficulties!
