Rumors of Steve's demise are greatly exaggerated (2)
on MacUser (194) permalinkI never met Steve Jobs, but I made eye contact with him. Once. The tech world will mourn his loss, and I can even now hear the lamentations rising over Silicon Vall—sorry? What? He’s not dead? But I totally saw his obituary on Bloomberg. Bloomberg. Somebody at the wire service got a little ahead of themselves today, pushing live an obituary of El Jobso when it was merely supposed to be updated internally (itself not ...Shared by DigitalMike (114) Justin (36)Contribute comment

Kucinich is Fired Up (1)
on random($foo) (26) permalinkThe irony of working on this stuff, is that well, you're working, so I haven't really been keeping up on the festivities. I started streaming stuff tonight, and while there's been a lot of good stuff (the nomination itself was particularly nice), a lot of it seems to be lacking a bit of the fire. Dennis Kucinich brings it, big time (even with a great zinger edited out): (Hearing good things about tonight's schedule. Hopefully ...Shared by Justin (36)Contribute comment

Known as Gammima.AG., or the W32.Gammima.AG worm, it's "a level 0 gaming virus intended to gather personal information," and while it might not actually ...Shared by Justin (36)Contribute comment

Know What Salary to Ask For in Your New Job [How To] (125)
on Lifehacker (36462) permalinkQuestions about salary requirements are one of the very few questions guaranteed to come up during a job interview or screening process, as well as almost always cause some severe awkwardness on both sides. Once you've found a great job, how do you demand what you're worth without sounding arrogant?

Red-Light Cameras Just Don&8217;t Work (41)

Those local governments have completely ignored the safety benefit of increasing the yellow light time and decided to install red-light cameras, shorten the yellow light duration, and collect the profits instead.

Blockbuster CEO 'Confused by Fascination' With Netflix (43)
on Epicenter (213) permalinkBlockbuster is a fine company with a perfectly sound business model. Problem is, the whole brick-and-mortar thing smells a little 20th centuryish. While Netflix has cornered the mail DVD business, Blockbuster CEO Jim Keyes is baffled by his competitor's success. "I've been frankly confused by this fascination that everybody has with Netflix," Keyes told Rafat Ali, in an interview with PaidContent.org. It doesn't seem particularly confusing to us.
