Introducing BNET Speaker Series

Today marked the first ever BNET Speaker Series featuring News.com’s Dan Farber interviewing Mary-Jo Foley, ZDNet blogger and author of Microsoft 2.0.

To help expose the event, we also invited the Lunch 2.0 crowd.

That’s why our courtyard was full of people today.

These events are great because they give our community a chance to check out our [...]

Easily follow your Facebook friends on Twitter.

July 19, 2007 – 2:22 am

I am always trying to move my friends over to use Twitter to update their status. I love Facebook’s status feature, but I don’t have time to log into Facebook 10 times a day.
I created a Twitter bot to syndicate my friend’s Facebook status RSS feed.
I also really like using Twitterrific, and I already [...]

Pownce on this

June 29, 2007 – 2:06 am

Digg’s Kevin Rose has finally unveiled his secret project, and as you’d expect, it’s spelled wrong.
Pownce offers users the ability to share notes, events, and other media with friends in their network. This is not your typical social networking site though.
The moment you sign up, you are automatically friends with the person who invited you, [...]

Happy Graduation Class of 2007

May 11, 2007 – 3:56 pm

This is the day that you put in the back of your mind, and hope that you arrive to it in one piece. It’s a day where everything comes together. The realization that you never have to sit in a classroom again. Just when you thought that your scholastic adventures were over, they were just [...]

I like her, but I’m not in like with her

April 29, 2007 – 11:11 pm

Have you ever had a crush on someone, but you weren’t sure how to get the message across to them? Back in the old days, we would play a game with the girls we had crushes on, sending them notes with the question, “Do you like me? Please choose Yes, No or Maybe”. Well, it’s [...]

Google wasting time in Q2?

April 2, 2007 – 7:25 pm

Every year, Google does something silly for April Fools Day. This year they offered to print and ship all of your Gmail, and even touted a free wireless LAN service through your toilet on their home page.
