 Screen name (computing) (via CobWeb/3.1 planetlab1.tamu.edu)   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-07-09)
A screen name or screenname is a name or string of characters chosen to uniquely identify a user within an online system, including dial-up bulletin board systems, platform videogame servers, and Internet-based environments.
How much a screen name means in reference to its owner usually depends on number of accounts, and length of use.
People who are not able to obtain their desired screen name on a popular service may make minor typographical changes to the name by adding numbers or changing spelling, resulting in a multitude of usernames like 'sUprlver98' and 'sexy_style665'.

Screen, as was described by the man page, can support multiple terminals at once.
Keep in mind that when you detach a screen, the programs that you had running when you detached will still be running when you reattach, even if you kill the ssh connection that you may have been using to access the machine.
