Urge to Merge

Just over at Slashdot reading about recent mergers of large companies that are part of the computerese community. The article is titled Battle of the Tech Titans. Google and Dell are doing something together and eBay, sadly, is joining forces with Yahoo. If someone wants to start a good online business consider an auction site like eBay. Yahoo will have every eBayer filled with Claria and 180eSolutions adware and they'll never be able to snipe again. But, by all means, keep using this service. Then when your machine bogs down to a snail's pace you can finally...well, anyway. It is interesting to read the numerous comments about this article. Many opinions. Check it out.

Okay time to get extremely bizzy. LAN Party is just a day away and I am way behind. Please drive safely this weekend and wear your seatbelts. It's the law now and they will give you a ticket for not complying.

"I couldn't help but say to Mr. Gorbachev, just think how easy his task and mine might be in these meetings that we held if suddenly there was a threat to this world from another planet. We'd find out once and for all that we really are all human beings here on this earth together."
