Yuwie, a more sophisticated Yaari? According to Yuwie, they are an online social networking service that allows their members to set up personal profiles for the purpose of linking to friends and sharing information, videos, blogs, and pictures, which it does, as it states, with a twist.

Starting today, Microsoft is “phasing in” a new version of Live Search, its online engine, in order for the company to better compete with two much more popular such venues on the Web, Yahoo! and Google.

Apple held an event at its campus earlier this week for particular members of the press, at which it showcased its new ultra-glossy lineup of iMac desktop computers, as well as a few updates to its iLife and iWork software suites.

And I must say, the new incarnation is far more attractive.
There’s nothing miraculous about Technorati. The site tracks what’s new and what’s popular in Web 2.0, and sorts it [...]

Military personnel and civilian employees will not be able to access YouTube, MySpace, Pandora, Photobucket, hi5, metacafe and several other “recreational Internet sites” (I like the term, by the way) when they are using the Department of Defense network. The full list of websites along with the explanation of the reasons for such a decision can be found in the official Pentagon memo. The cited [...]

o  We Squeezed In!
Two of my colleagues, Svetlana Gladkova, and Paul Glazowski, have delivered posts on what was termed “The Venice Project“. Svetlana gave me the opportunity to test drive Joost in order to overcome time differences to get our readers the news quickly. What happened next occurred between 6:00PM and 8:00PM Central.
