Microsoft and Yahoo Reach Deal 301

e9th writes "We know that Microsoft failed last February in its attempt to buy Yahoo. Now, Advertising Age reports that they've reached a deal. Instead of a buyout, the two will enter into a revenue sharing agreement, and Bing will become Yahoo's default search engine. The meat of the AdAge article can be found in Yahoo News. This deal may give Google something to worry about."

I seriously doubt that the iPhone will be able to keep up with the PSP2, a dedicated mobile gaming platform, once its released. Although I do admit there is quite a few good games for the iPhone, they are not what the iPhone is made for.

I nearly started laughing at this, its so ridiculous. So, if I read my book out loud to a few of my friends, I would be breaking the law? Yeah, sure. If I read the words of the book to myself in my head, I would also be breaking the law, according to them. Whatever device is reading this out loud is for personal use, not for broadcasting the entire book to a massive audience.

Family Scavenges Streets For Change 10

It's fair to call Barbara and Scott Humpherys penny-pinchers, and they are making sure their daughters end up the same way. The family scours parking lots, sidewalks and every other place you can imagine for for other people's lost money. "It's not so much that we need the money," Barbara said, "it's to show an example to our children. The more change you see, that penny becomes 99 more, and it becomes a dollar." "With the economy the way it is right now, it's important that they realize Dad is not this endless tap of cash," added Scott, a U.S. Army career counselor. I think this is a great thing to do with your family. It teaches resourcefulness, financial responsibility and that child hands are the perfect size for slipping between sewer grates.
