Asia’s Internet access wrecked by Taiwan quake

Do you watch the TV for news?

I was catching up on my feeds and I came across an article written by Steve Rubel from Micropersuasion about How TV Will Become the Ultimate Open Content Platform, where he discussed the future of TV and why and why won’t it replace the Internet for distribution of information.

Google says : No more images near your ads

Google has finally cleared up the policy of having images near their ads, and here’s what they said: We ask that publishers not line up images and ads in a way that suggests a relationship between the images and the ads.

Have you ever thought - what is so great about the blogosphere? Why isn’t there the “website-osphere” when people were starting to build personal websites, or “IM-opshere” or “IRC-osphere” when these things were hot? Why blogosphere?

Alexa ranking up, and now number one in Yahoo!

Just for record purposes. Alexa ranking has gone up again! This time below 300,000! So happy. I guess since Alexa is taking a 3 month aggregate, it should stabilize after my first three months. Anyway, yae! Oh yes, my mentor also informed me that Yahoo! was just doing a database [...]
