There’s a new search engine emerging on the scene today.
Former Google employee Anna Patterson, ventured out on her own with a group of other ex-Googlers and started Cuil (pronounced “cool”), which began processing search results at www.cuil.com.

I was from “here to there” from Stephen Colbert!
My life is now complete.
I can die a happy woman now.
Yesterday, I got oh, so close to the greatest living American, and it was oh, so great. Cassie and I headed to New York City to see a taping of The Colbert Report – my favorite show. Ever. We stood in line for more than [...]

Google Ordered to Hand Over YouTube Viewer Logs
In Viacom’s $1 billion lawsuit against YouTube, a federal judge last week ordered Google, who owns YouTube, to give Viacom’s lawyers access to viewer logs, disclosing what videos are being watched, who watches them and when.

John Mayer is Where the Light Is
It comes as no big surprise to those who know me that I’m not at all disappointed with John Mayer’s latest release, Where The Light Is – a live recording from December 8, 2007, in Los Angeles. It’s got some new content, but fans will already be familiar with the set list. The great thing [...]
