Google acquires Jaiku. A fine microblogging service, but probably more important is the fact that on phones, it's a presence-aware contact list, and that's something darn cool. "Activity streams and mobile presence are important areas where we believe Google can add a lot of value for users."Gabe Rivera: "I wish it were obvious, but there's no such thing as an unbiased automated news site (or search engine for that matter).

In adulthood, he recalled having the childhood delusion that every human being spoke a different language, and wondering why he did not have his own language like everyone else in his household." |
