Top Tech News

I have a new job now & today was my first day. I still haven’t found time to blog much lately, but here’s what I think I’ve missed blogging about:

  • Vista was released and now Microsoft Windows can be hacked with a verbal command.
  • Microsoft’s planning a Zune phone? Has the iPhone proven successful yet?
  • Technorati releases a new feature called "WTF", which they say stands for "Where’s the fire?" Yeah, right. WTF highlights what’s hot in the blogosphere, on the web, etc. by featuring user-written blurbs that are voted on digg-style.
  • flickr users have to merge their flickr accounts with a Yahoo ID by March 15th. Some flickr users are mad about this. Why? Is a Yahoo ID the ultimate sellout or are they just mad that they’re going to have to give up their exclusive, hot flickr handle?
  • Widgets are so 5 minutes ago…it’s all about the blidgets now!

So, what else have I missed?

    Yahoo started a new thing called Universes…

    The first one is for Wii…

    wii.yahoo.com

    It’s actually quite smart – taking all of Yahoo’s content – including Flikr and del.icio.us and bringing it together in one sport. Sort of like an uber-portal for one brand.

    They are doing this with 100 “passion brands” — but Wii was the first one.

    Interesting concept, that’s for sure.
