Imagine what would happen if GM and Ford collaborated to invest in the components and architecture of a better public transport network -- and then licensed it for free to cities, states, and countries. Imagine what would happen if pharma players directly invested in better hospitals and clinics -- instead of in trying to own the relationship with doctors, and furiously outspending one another when marketing blockbusters.

Matt Cutts: Gadgets, Google, and SEO (226) permalink
Google just officially confirmed that it will release a new open-source web browser, called Google Chrome (that link should go live sometime tomorrow). I can’t wait to talk more about Google Chrome, but I’ll hold off until it officially launches. Once people can download Google Chrome, I plan to talk about my experiences using Google Chrome, to lay some truth on you about questions you might ask about Google Chrome, and to give some tips ...Shared by Alberto (23) Alex (4) C.K.

Take a week off, and sometimes you come back and things are a mess, sometimes things are better than when you left :-) I'm a little more tanned, a lot more relaxed, and have a sore set of muscles after a week of windsurfing. But, as happy as I am about that (and a week with my wife and kids!), I'm more happy about something else.

What Does Mozilla Do With Its Dough? (2)

Mark Evans (23) permalink
I went to a Microsoft event last night, and one of the things we talked about during drinks afterwards was what Mozilla does with all of the money it makes from driving search traffic to Google. The little search box in the upper right-hand side of Firefox is Mozilla’s cash-cow because Google pays Mozilla a referral fee when people use it. And we’re not talking nickels and dimes. In 2006, the Mozilla Foundation made a ...Shared by Javed (62) Todd McKinney (2)Contribute comment -

The social media aggregation software, Friendfeed has much more value than one might originally think. The tool lets you add several disparate parts of your social web use into one spot (it collects your blog, your Flickr account, your upcoming.org event list, your bookmarks, etc).
