BW: Better Weapons in the Cancer War. Interesting article, but they don't mention ScanScopes! They will. Iowahawk is a great satire site; they outdid themselves with this one: The Lutefisk Jihad. There's just something funny about lutefisk, I don't know. Of course there's very little funny about jihad. [ via LGF ]
This is kind of cool; there's this site, LastMinute.com, a discount travel site. Essentially if you wait until "the last minute" to buy tickets, you can get them really cheap (because they're about to be worth $0). So the site has a link in the upper corner: "The boss is watching, look busy". It takes you to a page that looks like an Excel spreadsheet, filled with some awesome buzzword bingo. "Target leading-edge web-readiness." I love it.
Mark Cuban does it again: Yahoo forces RIAA staff cutbacks. Essentially, since Yahoo is now offering unlimited music for $5/month, the recording industry cannot claim that online piracy hurts them any more than $5/month. Tough to poke a hole in that argument, unless Yahoo is operating at a loss and paying more than they take in (which is possible).
[Later: This might be a dancing bear (cool but not useful). But it is cool!] Tim Oren explains the Tech Industry: Addicted to Buzz. "Buzz phrases and their attendant theories are a bit like drugs. Taken in moderation, they can be beneficial to your business analysis and model. Butbeware of quacks." At least, that explains the investor side of the tech industry :) (Tim is a VC.)
