The continuing adventures of a software entreprenuer - Feb. 2 ‘07
This seems pretty cool. From Rafat Ali: “– Six companies–avatar design firm Meez, instant messaging company Meebo, blog search engine Technorati, social network Multiply, address book site Plaxo and viral widget company RockYou–have banded together to create a slate of spots to run on YouTube on their own channel, “SuperDotComAdsXLI.”
Signs of life at the New AOL. For the record - nobody has called me yet.

More Tony Perkins stories. He’s always good for something juicy and sleazy.
And Nick gets caught with his hands in the cookie jar - too. You mean that NONE of these guys are sacred? I sure hope Om Malik hasn’t been paying folks off or gets granted exclusives for sexual favors. And I certainly know Rafat Ali doesn’t go that far!

If you wanna trust the NRA or the ACLU - please do. If you wanna leave your stuff at Yahoo, Microsoft or Google - please do as well.

The only thing that should be constant are the protocols and data structures.
Joe Reger pointed me to this post on Profile Aggregators - by Frank Gruber.
Here we go. Remember - it doesn’t matter what you call it - just so that we all can achieve interop.
