- MySpace goes mobile (launching a mobile service that will let users read and post to the site for free)
- Alex Barnett screencast on 'Attention Engines' (this is very useful, especially if you're in the media business and want to see a comparison of the latest in Web-based news trackers)
- eBay's Gérald Rousselle reviews edgeio (comprehensive look at edgeio, the soon-to-be released online classifieds service run by Mike Arrington and Keith Teare)
- Rojo FeedShare ("a service that helps bloggers with similar interests promote each other." -- kind of like Adsense but you're advertising people)
- Tom's Future of Web Apps, Translated for Product Managers (heh, like Jeremy I too have had Tom Coates' awesome presentation open in my Firefox browser for the past few days...)
- Notes from recent Future of Web Apps Summit (great work Simon Willison, there is gold in them ther' notes!)
- Yahoo looking for semantic web developers (in the Media group too... I think the Web 2.0 'Web of Data' approach is slowly aligning with the Semantic Web... good news all round)
- Chinese president coming to Seattle, possibly Microsoft (Peter Jackson visited recently too...)
- Dave Sifry is proud of "brrreeeport" results (I see Supr.c.ilio.us is on the Valleywag payroll now... is this Snark 3.0?)
