A factoid is a fact that is not a fact at all.

It's like throwing a kilobyte down an information superhighway.

Yes, but the linked article (factlet?) makes me want to reclaim it.

I don't understand. Reclaim it for its original meaning (a spurious fact)? The title of this post is an instance of the word's primary usage, I think.

I was thinking like this: originally, factoid=spurious; for a while CNN uses as equivalent to "factlet;" now, wiki says spurious is somehow real definition; I try to "reclaim" factletish definition. "Reclaim" is probably not the right word.

The humanoid could mean something like spurious human. So there's an upside, too.
