These are pretty sweet looking!
When the software starts to level out (Android, iOS, Windows Phone 7, webOS, QNX/RIM) it’s really great to see innovation in the hardware.
Nice job Sony…

I love reading about odd marriages…
I never imagined that Walmart would attempt to get in on the social web like this.
Their purchase of Kosmix might add a neat feature of commerce to our ring of friends.

E-mail marketing firm Epsilon was compromised and addresses were leaked.
As a customer of many of the companies they manage lists for, my inbox is already getting flooded.
Wonderful…
e-mail or email?

The Associated Press has officially announced they will remove the hyphen from “e-mail” in their style guide. Other changes include changing “smart phone” to “smartphone” and “cell phone” to “cellphone.”
I personally like the space removal. Even last year when “web site” became “website” I was glad to see it gone.
But I will miss the hyphen.
I wonder when “cloud” will become a proper noun like “Internet” and get the uppercase treatment it deserves?

Smart idea for a startup…
Hour.ly matches up temp job seekers with employers and has partnered with TinyChat. This ought to be a great partnership for them. If you have never checked out TinyChat, it’s a very impressive video chat system that requires no thick client install.
This ought to really speed up the process to get temporary positions filled.
