Yahoo Search To Mine Twitter Data #search #Yahoo http://l.clipotech.com/hxath

A Reuters article reports Yahoo is still going to invest in search, at
least until the Microsoft deal is done. Specifically, in real-time
search by "mining" Twitter data. http://www.seroundtable.com/archives/020526.html

- Yahoo must do something before they are completly dead. Indexing
Twitter is great. It makes me wonder why Google won't do the same?

Are Camera Phones Killing the Digital Camera? - Not without optical zoom http://l.clipotech.com/mpkkh

Are mobile phones featuring high-powered cameras replacing the conventional digital camera in the minds of consumers?

http://seekingalpha.com/article/153198-are-camera-phones-killing-the-digital-camera

- Not as long as mobile phones don't have optical zoom lenses they wont.

One good thing though, is that you always have a mobile phone with you.
A real camera - not so often.

Why has Microsoft delayed its streaming music service? - Interesting thought http://l.clipotech.com/mierl #music

Microsoft “has no label deals”. And a streaming music service isn’t much good without any content.

Why Google's Chrome OS will lose its shine - We will see what happens http://l.clipotech.com/caigi #chrome

Image via Wikipedia

"So, why is Chrome OS good for Microsoft? If Google is distracted by developing a new operating system, handling tech support and dealing with the inevitable public relations fallout it will face from unhappy users, the company won't be able to grow its business in other areas."

http://computerworld.co.nz/news.nsf/tech/FDD5730CFF955F59CC25760400067B07

- I think that Chrome OS can be a good thing. At least it's interesting. We will see what Google will make of it. The one thing I wonder is why they need two different OS: Android and Chrome OS?

Building A Real Mobile Web - I don't think we need one http://k.clipotech.com/vxqwn #mobile

I'd like to see a mobile web that feels just like the world wide web. The world wide web has unleashed a wave of creativity and technical achievement and has impacted society on so many levels over the past twenty years. We can have a mobile web that will do the same, but we don't have one right now.

http://www.avc.com/a_vc/2009/08/building-a-real-mobile-web.html

- I don't think we need one. It's better to make devices that can handle the "real" web. And I think mobile units like the iPhone and Android phones can handle the web quite well.
