What you all are missing about Google
via Scobleizer -- Tech geek blogger by Robert Scoble on February 04, 2008

The bloggers are going nuts, once again, over the email that a Google lawyer sent to Microsoft regarding Microsoft’s proposed purchase of Yahoo.Here’s what’s really going on:1.

Microsoft researchers make me cry
via Scobleizer -- Tech geek blogger by Robert Scoble on February 14, 2008
It’s not often that I see software that really changes my world. It’s even rarer that I see software that I know will change the world my sons live in. I can count those times pretty easily. The first time I saw an Apple II in 1977. When Richard Cameron showed me Apple’s Hypercard. Microsoft’s Excel. Aldus’ Pagemaker. And something called Photoshop, all in his West Valley Community...

Tell me I’m lame and that I don’t deserve to be a geek and that I should run away and join the circus, right?Well, that’s what I saw.Or, more accurately, the World Wide Telescope.Like I said, sounds lame. How could that possibly be the...

Companies Change, So Do their Logos
via TechCrunch by Erick Schonfeld on February 07, 2008
What does a logo say about a company? And what does it say when those logos change? A logo is more than just window dressing. It is a company’s identity boiled down to its bare essence, and is often the essential image consumers have in their mind when they think about a corporation. Products change, but logos endure. Or do they?Neatorama has a great post that goes through the evolution of...
