Will There Be a Microsoft and Yahoo Deal?

Authored by Jay Baage on April 23, 2008 - 5:49am.

In this video, Kara Swisher of All Things D asks some tech people at a party in San Fran about what they think will happen between Microsoft and Yahoo! after the MS bid expires this Saturday. The answers are kinda interesting, but the highlight to me is when Kara confronts one of the tech guys wearing a Jawbone Bluetooth Headset: "What is that, an anti-dating device, a female repellent?"

Buzz Watch: Tech Bubble Video Taken Down From YouTube

Authored by Jay Baage on December 11, 2007 - 2:12pm.
Someone sent YouTube a take-down request for the popular "Here Comes Another Bubble" video because of its use of a snippet of a BoomTown interview with Facebook investor Peter Thiel. YouTube was quick to honor it. The irony is that the notice did not come from BoomTown. In fact, Kara Swisher of BoomTown/All Things D/WSJ has interviewed one of the creators of "Here Comes Another Bubble", Richter Scales’ Tom Shields and complains about how sorry she is that it was taken down. See the video after the break.
