Being Cuil and not Popular Ain't That Bad



Either you're spending way too much time offline and you haven't even heard - Uncuil. I mean Cuil. I like their take on 'popular' as not always important and on serendipitous search. Google-killer? I think Google has more lives than a cat but hey, even sabre-tooths became extinct.

Taking on Google
Good but not great.
Despite
hiccups, finally, gets going.
Dark version? Uhmm. Mysterious, yes.

Speaking of Dark: The only
dark that matters for now so Expand your Batman Knowledge.

F8: Never leave anything to chances.

Facebook Connect to conquer the world
.
Copycat.
Fb Fund seems promising.
Here are the winners! Have they heard about the Morph Appspace, hope they use it for their deployments because it is made to scale!
Hold it! What facebook didn't announce but should've.

I've just began to tinker with it but you should try it out for yourself. No kidding.
Mixx.Com Mixx is your link to the web content that really matters.

Different kind of mix. The kind I used to make regularly until recordable cds arrived.
Mixa is cool. Really!
Admirable and scary.
Yahoo pays back! They're still the Number 1 content site in my book.

Big Bangers: CERN, Facebook, Clouds and SaaS


Big Bang: Whatever this is, it must be important? Playing advanced physics is the CERN Project.

As we move closer to f8, let us revisit how the much ballyhooed platform has performed after being touted as the next big thing. Oh and if anybody is into Ruby on Rails and would want to put web apps on it, you should definitely check this out. Morph Appspace

Print and Publish, Web-Style. Lulu and Scribd. That means easy.

Cloud Computing.


Computing the cost. Will we ever come to a standard rate?

The Invisible Infostructure
. Sound good.


SaaS creates cloud computing alternatives. Like proprietary platforms? Why can't we see more open source ones. I know, it's complicated.

Does this SaaS app sound like 'Terminator' or something wickedly cool? Don't ask me as I also don't have any idea what it is. Registro!

Universal Status: In(ter)dependence Daze

Tell us what you're doing: Nothing much, really?

So-shall u Network? Tired of going over your different social networks and typing the same number of characters to say what you're doing exactly at the right moment? You're in luck as there's this growing number of ways that let's you update your status by just going to one site. Check here, courtesy of ReadWriteWeb.

Cloud Security: Doggedly, until people feel safe. But there's a feeling that it's just a matter of time before everything gets hitched on it and not because it can be proven to be really, really secure but more on the realization that people have been ceding their security and privacy (much like US citizens who accepted the Big Brother -type laws under the guise of Anti-Terrorism). Anyway, here's Gartner.

Cause you gotta have F8! Probably the biggest event after today, especially for Developers. Check it out.

Oh, forget independence so you won't spoil the festive atmosphere.
