Microsoft Underwhelms Again
OK, when I heard Microsoft was hiring Jerry Seinfeld for its marketing campaign, the hopeful part of me thought perhaps that Microsoft was suddenly growing a clue on how to market. But, alas, I thought wrong. + I am not alone in the sentiment that this commercial was not funny. It was also a waste [...]
Ustream Working On New Revenue Model?
Today, I went into my account at Ustream.TV to convert recorded videos over to MOV format. I started one, then moved onto another one to convert it. I got this: Relevant in this screenshot is the statement “Maximum is 1 at the Basic user level“. Basic user level? I didn’t know Ustream had more [...]
Lively.com? What the F**k Is Google Thinking?
Remember Orkut? The social network might be popular in Brazil, but it is a tiny fish when compared to Myspace or Facebook. Now we have Lively, a new virtual reality site which, as Andy Beal puts it, will be the the Orkut to Second Life. My question? WHY? As Google posts in their blog, A [...]

When you see stories like this one, it makes you step aside and really think. As you know, yesterday was July 4th – Independence Day – here in the United States. I am actually able to make a living by blogging. We don’t have any governmental agency trying to regulate us (yet). But, over in [...]

Well, Alexa has announced it is changing the way it counts traffic, according to a story on Techcrunch. [...]
Yahoo Strokes Google, Puts on Show for Microsoft
Yahoo is in a pickle. Microsoft is setting up for a hostile takeover of Yahoo and Yahoo is doing everything it possibly can to puff it’s chest and look valuable. Part of this strategy is apparently to woo Google. Yahoo was to run a 2-week trial of running Google Adsense ads on the Yahoo properties. [...]
Microsoft-Yahoo Story DOMINATES Techmeme
Like a lot of bloggers, I follow Techmeme to get the buzz in the blogopshere. Today, the story about Microsoft bidding to buy Yahoo is completely DOMINATING Techmeme. I think every blogger, and probably their grandmothers, are talking about this story. To illustrate, look at this compiled screenshot of Techmeme as it is right now. [...]
