Thank goodness, therefore, for JBoss. It’s doing good things for Red Hat, as well as sprouting new good things outside of Red Hat. We need both.
A new startup is set to spin from the ranks of JBoss. I’d give you the URL but then you could track down the host and spoil their plans. I’ll [...]
Once you’re lucky, twice you’re good? So went the title of a recent book about Web 2.0 entrepreneurs. Pretty soon, we may have an idea whether it applies to Caterina Fake.

Whoever wrote the comment, its laundry list of reasons users and especially advertisers might like Baidu is informative. I just wish credit had been given to whoever was the original author. (Also there’s a “next week” below that doesn’t work on the second posting since it was more than a week after the first.) Here’s [...]
Given the Democratic and Republican conventions and the Labor Day holiday stealing everyone’s attention, I expected this week to be a quiet one when it came to product announcements.
