Not sure if it's spread into everyday use but yesterday was the first time I've ever heard it used. Ingest - Used in context - "I want you to ingest the material on websites A & B onto website C".

WTF - The Office was a satire not a ****ing how-to guide! If I take it off again is it being digested? What if I change it and then put it on, is it being regurgitated onto website C?

When I asked the user of the term these questions he busied himself and avoided answering. Where do these ****ing terms come from!?

from out-of-the-envelope blue sky brainstorming?

... not so much pushing the edges of the envelope as looking out through the little address window

"Ingest" has been used for a while in TV. It's all about converting tape to digital data. Most TV stations even have an Ingest Department...

'What's the killer question?'

That one you just asked if you dare ask it again!

brainstorming?

it's a 'thought shower' now as a brainstorming is mentalist (i.e. discriminates against the mentals)
