- Well, it seems that the mainstream press isn't swallowing all the Friendster hype either. While we have been expressing our concerns about the space, much of the mainstream press has bought the bubble-like story of how Friendster is the next big thing. Business Week, though, has taken a step back from the hype to see if there's any there there in all this hype about Friendster. The reporter comes to the conclusion that it's a "classic case of Valley disconnect", where many of the folks going gaga over Friendster haven't actually thought it through beyond the fact that plenty of people have signed up to use the service. The article suggests (unlike Friendster's claim) that friends aren't necessarily the best people for finding dates. |

- Lexar announced that they will be introducing a flash-based JumpDrive Music device in November. One of the greatest benefits of their product will be that there are no moving parts in it. I read earlier today on BlogCritics, bookofjoe has had problems with all 3 of his iPods. I posted earlier that I fancy having an iPod but after reading about the problems that bookofjoe is having, I'm not too sure. Granted, I don't plan to be jogging with my iPod but if I were to set it down a little too hard or drop it, what then? |

- For Putin må det komme meget ubelejligt her op til valgene, at de ellers mange gode økonomiske tal nu pludseligt trues af de 'ukontrollable siloviki', som han har sat til at kontrollere sit 'kontrollerbare demokrati'. Det burde få ham til at opgive forsøget på at kontrollere demokratiet og i stedet satse på at bruge demokratiet til at kontrollere økonomien og dens bagmænd, om de så har Stalins modbydelige eller Khodorkovskijs forfinede fjæs. |
