“Mr. Wales, what are you going to do about it?”

Filed under: Revolution 3.0

http://www.usatoday.com
A USA Today Op-Ed piece discussed a very false Wikipedia ‘biography’.

If I were to write a letter to the editor, I would say this:

As a frequent Wikipedia user, I found John Seigenthaler’s piece very interesting. While Mr. Seigenthaler was very aggressive with BellSouth, I think he should hold Jimbo Wales’ “feet to the fire.”

For example, “Mr. Wales how do you plan on correcting this very serious problem? Many people depend on your information. At this point in time, you might want to consider employing some professional editors to review your content.”

No eBay for This Santa

Related to this Santa at the very swanky Buckhead Phipps Plaza, The Atlanta Journal Constitution reports: “Any appointments found to be sold or transferred will not be honored. This includes eBay auctions.”

Be Careful with Firefox Version 1.5

Filed under: Revolution 3.0

I just downloaded the latest version and it won’t access the Internet. Until I can get it to work, I’ve reverted to Internet Explorer.

Here’s something I just discovered: Internet Explorer loads Web pages much faster than Firefox — at least on my computer. It looks like I might be a convert back to IE.

Yahoo’s Stock Downgraded

Filed under: Revolution 3.0, Yahoo

I’ve always been a big Yahoo fan. It was my Google back in 1998 - 2000. While the stock was downgraded today, I find that Yahoo is best positioned to take advantage of Revolution 3.0. Here’s why . . .

1. Yahoo is almost as innovative as Google.
2. Yahoo can do branded advertising — Google cannot.
3. Yahoo has a tremendous amount of content.
4. Yahoo has a portal site — My.Yahoo.com.
5. Yahoo has everything a newspaper has: Sports, business, stocks, news, and much more.
6. Yahoo’s e-mail is getting better and better — RSS feeds, available on My.Yahoo.com and more.
7. Yahoo has tagging.
8. Oh yeah, Yahoo’s search engine ain’t bad. I’d get rid of Google if Yahoo could do the following as well as Google: Real-time stock quotes and phone number lookup.

In my book, Yahoo is a long-term buy. It’s never let me down. Thank you Yahoooooooooo!

Nintendo and Steve Case (remember him from AOL days) are into a different type of revolution.

Isn’t this nice: So many revolutions and not one gun? Wow, times really have changed.
