It’s my birthday, so I’ll be making the voyage upstate for the weekend to be with family and likely not spend much time blogging/twittering.

Hopefully all of the readers of this blog are now well aware of the audience-led IRL raid of the keynote interview Sarah Lacy conducted with Mark Zuckerberg of Facebook at SXSW.
Let’s take a look back, now that we’ve had time to digest.
Discussed: Sexism. Would the audience have been as cruel to Ms. Lacy [...]

ESP, you’ve heard of it, right? Well, this isn’t it- but imagine the ability to be speaking outloud, while having a cell phone conversation at the same time. Sounds like some crazy far off star-trek future like beam me up Scotty, or- they will kill us both, Jim? Think again, and then while [...]

Michael Arrington just broke this story with this blog post on TechCrunch.
Pretty huge news of a giant like Yahoo adapting a technology that for any real purpose doesn’t even exist yet.
The web will be different, for sure, but with all the talk about the Semantic web strengthening/destroying Google, I’m itching to hear a Googresponse.
Yahoo will [...]

Get ready.
I’m about to lay out precisely and simply the most significant difference between Old Web (1.0) and New Web (2.0).
Old Web: Do we have to link? Well, we better open up a new browser window to make sure we don’t lose ‘em!

Hulu will launch publically tomorrow, and only then will we (those of us who weren’t invited to private beta) find out what all the fuss is about.

It’s part three of our infinity part series of Neat Web 2.0 Stuff!
Youlicit
Google, watch your back. Ok, that is not true (yet)… but anyway, there is a possible alternative to stumbling. Today’s neat web app, Youlicit (not even to beta phase), isn’t really a search engine, per say- as much as a new web discovery [...]

Today’s App is still in it’s beta phase (surprise), but has some interesting social networking implications (suprise), and a clean enough looking site that it’s next up for part 2 of our infinity part series: Neat Web 2.0 Stuff!
Ask500People.com is pretty simple, [...]
