- Political bloggers coordinate 'Google Bombs'
  Posted by Jeff from MSNBC
  I agree with Kari: Kari Chisholm, a Democratic new media strategist for one of Burns' opponents who lost in the Democratic primary, doubts that the Google-bombing campaign will be very useful. "It's not about chasing the 1 percent of voters that haven't figured out there's a difference between [Democrat] Jon Tester and Burns," Chisholm said.

- Google profits beat expectations
  Posted by Jeff from MSNBC
  Investors seemed awe-struck too. Google’s stock price climbed by more than 7 percent in after-hours trading, signaling the company’s market value may rise by another $10 billion Friday. That’s enough wealth to finance another six deals similar to Google’s recently announced plans to buy the Web’s hottest video service, YouTube Inc.

- Is Google Evil?
  Posted by Billbar from Motherjones
  So the question is not whether Google will always do the right thing—it hasn’t, and it won’t. It’s whether Google, with its insatiable thirst for your personal data, has become the greatest threat to privacy ever known, a vast informational honey pot that attracts hackers, crackers, online thieves, and—perhaps most worrisome of all—a government intent on finding convenient ways to spy on its own citizenry.

- The Story of Friendster: Turned down $30 million acquisition by Google
  Posted by Jeff from New York Times
  Go for it, he did. Mr. Abrams spurned Google’s advances and charted his own course. In retrospect, he should have taken the $30 million. If Google had paid him in stock, Mr. Abrams would easily be worth $1 billion today, according to one person close to Google. And with Google’s ample resources, Friendster might have solidified its position as the pioneering front-runner in social networking. Instead, Mr. Abrams has the distinction of founding a company that is shorthand for potential unmet.

- Paradigm shift: What Google didn't buy
  Posted by Jeff
  The point here--just to kick it a little harder--is that this is yet more evidence how social media platforms that are shifting the paradigms in a profound way--Not only does YouTube have a mass market, it's video on the web appeal that the more high-brow Times will never have (Is YouTube the next MTV?). Furthermore, it's a platform that gives Google the opportunity to morph into a multimedia MySpace ecosystem, way beyond what Orkut could ever be--and most cruelly, it's something that teens and twenty-somethings care about, which may no longer be the case for The New York Times. So Google bought YouTube, not a media company, and the fact that doesn't even surprise anyone one anymore and that it makes perfect sense, that, dudes, is a paradigm shift.

- Google launches service for computer cod - Tech News & Reviews
  Posted by Jeff from MSNBC
  Searchers can seek out specific programming terms or computer languages and dive deep into compressed code to locate specific features. Users also can narrow a search to find software code based on specific licensing requirements, which is a big deal in warding off future patent litigation.Similar to how a consumer might type a few words into a standard Google search box to find an answer, programmers can seek out relevant lines of code and find a range of search results that link them to answers.

eBay To Disallow Checks and Money Orders In US

eBay has gone completely down the tubes. Meg Whitman gave a completely crock of s*** speech at the GOP convention. Her belief system may have been profitable thus far for ebay, but I suspect it’s heading downhill from here.

This seems fairly limited and lame to me. Facebook is still way ahead.

Google's Shareholders Vote to Continue Censorship in China

yeah…I agree the we may seem a bit much. But, then, I don’t see too many people up in arms over it either…therefore, "we" isn’t too far off.

“So much attention is paid to the aggressive sins, such as violence and cruelty and greed with all their tragic effects, that too little attention is paid to the passive sins, such as apathy and laziness, which in the long run can have a more devastating effect.
