Apparently it will be a "platform API". The source of these rumors is a Bebo investor, so we think it's on the mark. Bebo is one of the largest social networks in the world and is above MySpace and Facebook in some parts of the world (e.g. it is number 1 in the UK).

Fox News and its fellow-travelers have been waging war on Matthews, insisting the MSNBC host's recent comments about "criminality" within the Bush Administration exposed an anti-GOP bias. Bill O'Reilly misquoted Matthews, claiming he'd called the entire administration a "criminal enterprise," while Gretchen Carlson of Fox &...http://feeds.portfolio.com/~r/portfolio/mixedmedia/~3/167956913/chris-matthews-biased-mayb... Tom Friedman Tees Up Another One- October 10, 2007 Sometimes you can actually hear the exact moment when a Tom Friedman New York Times op-ed column becomes a Tom Friedman book proposal. If Generation Q doesn&39;t make it into a Barnes & Noble near you by Christmas 2009, I&39;ll eat my copy of The World Is Flat.

Are there any methods to trying to get 1980's waterfall lovers to even think of rapid development techniques as anything but silly crap suitable for start-ups but with not place in Real Development Companies (paraphrased), or should I just quit and find somebody more exciting to work for Most people fear change because they overestimate the...http://www.37signals.com/svn/posts/626-ask-37signals-how-to-escape-the-waterfall |
