TechCrunch (5440) permalink
Those Jerry Seinfeld Microsoft advertisements started today. CrunchGear’s Doug Aamoth recorded the first ad during the Giants/Redskins game and put it up on the site. This is reportedly a $300 million ad spend. Seinfeld gets $10 million. It’s a cute and cuddly situation comedy about shoes. Has a couple of moments. No mention of Microsoft or Windows other than “are they ever going to come out with something that will make our computers moist and ...Shared by Adam Singer (3) David (51) dkastner (15) Ivan Žužak (3) matt (10) Nate (28) Rex (81) Wayne (51)Contribute comment - Execs predict next Google-like tech (2)

While the early release of the Chrome comic might have changed the way Google went about launching its new browser, it definitely did not hurt Chrome's early success. According to data from Net Applications, Chrome captured more than 1% of the browser market within its first day of release. Since then, it has been growing steadily and is now at around 1.5%, as both technology blogs and mainstream publications have written about it almost nonstop ...Shared by adam (707) baixinho (25) bhc3 (34) CannonGod (190) Corvida (60) Drew Olanoff (117) Elroy (21) leo (15) mark (18) mhmazidi (180) Mike F (355) Mikko (4) morgan180 (40) Morton Fox (42) Nate (28) Phreak 2.0 (46) sarahintampa (79) yoshy (298)Contribute comment - Microsoft and 12 others invest in Japanese TV (1)

Google’s new browser Chrome is amazing. How amazing? So much so that I’ve booted Microsoft Windows on my iMac two days in a row now after not using it for months. (Chrome isn’t yet available for Mac OS X, more on that below.) Does Chrome have some bugs and issues? Sure, but in terms of everyday experience I feel like I can safely say it’s the best browsing experience I’ve had on Windows since the ...Contribute comment - Is It So Bad That Bono Does Good? (5)

Much controversy has surrounded the release of Cuil. Bloggers have lashed out at the problems they have come across. So, I decided to ask some friends what they think.

Has anyone asked Tom or Anna at Cuil what their actual index/search ...Contribute comment -
