The weekend saw a flurry of discussion of Barack Obama's first monitor-side chat, which is either a harbinger of our awesome new Web 2.0 connected social open-source government on the Information Superhighway, or a rather unremarkable transition from a weekly radio address few heard to a weekly YouTube few will watch. As a data point in favor of the latter view, Technorati's Michah Sifry notes that the first video got plenty of link love, but ...

We’re about to witness the beginning of the YouTube Presidency, as The Washington Post has dubbed it. When Barack Obama takes office in late January, he plans to give a new twist to a longstanding tradition. The weekly presidential radio address will now “air” on YouTube, meaning that you’ll be able to access the president’s messages in video, whenever you want, on one of America’s most trafficked web sites.

Researchers have disarmed the blood-brain barrier sentry that keeps a potential treatment for stroke and Alzheimer's disease from getting into the brain.

The blood-brain barrier passes no judgment on which foreign substances are trying to get into the brain to treat diseases and which are trying to do harm, so it blocks ...

Filed under: Earnings reports, Bad news, Starbucks (SBUX)As I sit in my neighborhood Starbucks (NASDAQ: SBUX) outlet, the song playing through the coffeeshop speakers is Everybody Hurts by REM. How appropriate. This fiscal year, especially these past two quarters, hurt Starbucks.

The secret to Remember the Milk (RTM)’s extreme effectiveness as a task manager is its ability to be wherever you are on the web. Gmail. Check. Firefox. Check. iPhone. Check. All three places I absolutely need a task manager on. Most recently, RTM released their native iPhone app and they just nailed it!
