You’d think if people were going to copy the idea behind Digg, they would have done it much sooner than now. You know, people like Netscape, who jump in there quick and really rip something off.
Profy.com has a post about Yahoo!, MSN and Dell beginning to offer services for their users to rate various resources […]

Should Google and any other search engine for that matter have the right to grab any content off the web and include it in their search results? My opinion is that if it’s published on the web, then yes. I’m not sure what the problem is. Erik Schonfeld seems to agree on the Business 2.0 […]

I’ve been in my main three webmail accounts quite a bit here over the past few days and I’ve noticed that there’s becoming more of a gap between all three than a convergence.
There was a point where I was getting ready to give up my Yahoo! Mail account for my Gmail one as my primary. I […]

I’m a Plaxo user and I love the service. I was hesitant at first, but a friend of mine kept hounding me about how great the service was and that they weren’t out to just harvest e-mail addresses for spammers.
Colbert Low has an interesting post at Profy.com about the possibility of Google purchasing Plaxo. Although […]

With the recent departure of Jon Miller, AOL CEO, Jason Calacanis has quickly announced his departure as well from the AOL and his own Weblogs, Inc.
Calacanis is a what I would call a chain-entrepreneur, it won’t be long before he’ll be moving forward again and building something of significance that we’ll all be talking about […]

Why is it that AOL mail, or specifically my AIM mail account, continues to be a spam magnet? I don’t provide my e-mail address for this account to anyone, I never include it on web forms or on web pages. 3 of 5 messages from my account above are sent specifically to my AOL/AIM address, […]

There seems to be something in the water don’t you think? I mean Google buys YouTube for over $1.5B and that just puts everyone in the shopping mood. I guess it make sense though, there’s only about 55 more days until Christmas right?
FORTUNE has learned from multiple sources that Yahoo (Charts) recently approached Time Warner […]
