    Some of my friends are doing this today.

    Quoted: MSN China began asking users Tuesday to show their concern by putting rainbows, created with a (R) symbol, before their MSN handles. Called the "Rainbow Petition," the action is not seeking a given number of users, but instead wants to remind people of the earthquake's victims and their plight, and encourage them to donate money or supplies to relief efforts.

    "Icahn haz Yahoo?" That's their headline?

    Quoted: Icahn, a billionaire financier, sent an open letter to Yahoo Chairman Roy Bostock today. In it, he very matter-of-factly states exactly how the Yahoo shareholders, led by him, intend to take over the company by way of a proxy battle to replace Yahoo’s board of directors.
    ...
    Icahn also includes the biographies of all the members of the board he is putting forward. There are some good names on the list including: Dallas Mavericks owner Mark Cuban (who sold Broadcast.com to Yahoo in 1999), venture capitalist Adam Dell, two Hollywood heavyweights (former Universal chairman and CEO Frank Biondi and New Lines Cinemas co-chairman and CEO Robert Shaye) and, of course, none other that Carl Icahn himself.

    Interesting Mark Cuban a part of Icahn's new board.

    Quoted: Finally, Plaxo has admitted to having been acquired, by none other than Comcast, for around the speculated $175 million, according to Reuters. After dodging rumors that eventually seemed unsubstantiated, the communications services company has in fact been the one to take on Plaxo. Having an existing partnership with Comcast was surely a factor in

    Quoted: In a pretty significant move, Reuters is making its news content available to the developer community through the use of a non-commercial API offering, through Reuters Labs. This means that you can now take Reuters news and create applications around it, or better fit the content into your existing applications and sites.

    Quoted: With Apple chief executive Steve Jobs’ keynote now officially set for Monday June 9th at 10:00 AM Pacific, the 3G iPhone rumors, speculation and actual news seems to have kicked up a notch from the high level it was already at. Yesterday, the Swiss site Le Matin Online reported that Switzerland had been added to Apple’s ever-expanding roster of countries

    Quoted: Digg is in big trouble. We already know that Yahoo! Buzz, a beta social news service by Yahoo!, can drive a large amount of traffic and comments to websites. We also know the ongoing problems at competitor digg, which continue to be skated around by digg management. Now we have proof that Yahoo! Buzz is kicking some digg behind in terms of stats. According

    WetPaint vs. Ning on Techcrunch.

    Quoted: The product isn’t just about wikis - they also have social features (profiles, friends, etc.), and added things like forums and, more recently, photo uploads, over time. In many ways they are more like Ning, which allows users to create social networks easily, than other pure wiki sites like Wikia.

    Quoted: A News Sitemap uses the Sitemap Protocol, with the following differences:

    A second namespace for the News schema should be added:

    Each URL may include optional news-specific tags within the News schema, as described in the table below.

    I think Scoble might, in fact, be using the old version of the Google Reader for iPhone. The new one lets you share easily without a navigation. You do have to actually read the post before you share it (usually a good idea), but the click to view a post makes it appear inside the main list. No navigation required. The share / unshare link is an ajax method located at the footer of the post. This doesn't cause a navigation as it did in the first version. Also, you can now see All Posts, not just new ones. Nice improvements.

    Quoted: You might like it though. Some of my Twitter friends say that’s how they read all their feeds (I bias my life around sharing feed items, so making me click through items to share makes me mad).

    Refaving the TopBillin'... I think mowen016 would enjoy this.

    Quoted: The aging Vito Corleone, emblematic of cold-war American power, is struck down suddenly and violently by forces he did not expect and does not understand, much as America was on September 11. Even more intriguingly, each of his three “heirs” embraces a very different vision of how the family should move forward following this wrenching moment. Tom Hagen, Sonny and Michael approximate the three American foreign-policy schools of thought—liberal institutionalism, neoconservatism and realism—vying for control in today’s disarranged world order.
