Round Up time…

Wednesday, May 23rd, 2007

Well it’s another beautiful day in the STL for the moment. I need to get moving on now. The Link Blog was updated, and it’s time for a really quick round up. I have quite a busy day ahead of me, and yes, I’m having the time of my life right now. With that being said, here are a few items that are interesting and I would have expanded on further if I had the time this morning.

FIOS in Ft. Wayne, IN - There is hope if Ft. Wayne, IN is having FIOS. I figured that it would never get out here to the middle of nowhere, but there is now hope! FIOS may not be for just NYC/Long Island much longer.

Brilliance - Yes, I agree. Taking something that is there already and just utilizing it is a great way to make a new startup. Just a word of warning in this. Make sure Amazon doesn’t own the main company as Alexaholic or Statsaholic found out!

Tribler sounds cool
- At least they kept the “e” in their name. I was really wanting to investigate more about this place. Sounds very interesting as it’s a mashup of big media proportions. Well big media as in a way to help you find more media by suggestion.

Google Invests - In the wife of Sergey Brin the co-founder of Google. Interesting things could come about this. I think they probably went ahead and made sure all was good, but usually these sort of things are kind of dangerous. I feel there will be many posts around the internet written today around this one. Opinions will be flying.

Leaving the blogs
- I am thinking that Technorati is changing things to fit a certain market or investment criteria. I think that Technorati should stay tracking the blogosphere. It’s what it did best. Now things are changing up. They are “diversifying“.

Justin.tv goes wild - Well if you are invited as a key person or are in Justin’s group of sleeping friends. That was the funniest thing I read online about this yesterday. Justin was apparently sleeping when this all was launched yesterday. Nice. I still use UStream as I know I just won’t be invited. Watch it there, or on my page located at what I call “rex.tv“. I don’t have the gear to broadcast 24/7 like Justin. I’m also quite boring.

Joost and Hollywood - What can stop the Joost juggernaut? I really can’t see a bad move yet by this company. If you haven’t jumped on the Joost train, I suggest you do so.

Technically Speaking, all will become apparent in short order. Have a great day, and check back to the Link Blog, don’t forget to play your Jambaz game. I did the other day as a matter of fact, so hopefully I can still be competitive.
