Del.icio.us isn't the only site to link information, business and community through tagging. Inspired by del.icio.us, Canadian photo sharing site Flickr adopted tags to organize user-contributed photos. When a Flickr member uploads a photo to the site, she has the option of tagging it with a few words that describe the photo's subject or image. Visit the "britishcolumbia" tag page for almost 5,500 photos of B.C. Or flip through almost 7,000 images tagged "office," or 17,000 tagged "phone."

Yahoo introduces on-line music service
Music subscription service to enable consumers to download thousands of songs onto portable MP3 players for $60 (U.S.) annually
Yahoo is offering unlimited downloads from a library of one million songs for $6.99 per month or $60 for an annual subscription. That's a sharp discount from Los Angeles-based Napster and Seattle-based Real Networks Inc., which both charge $14.95 per month, or just under $180 annually, for similar services.
Free to try
Cons: This thing eats up 50mb of RAM from the start. After running the program for a little while, it shoots up to anywhere from 70-120mb. It also uses massive amounts of CPU power, and brings my 2.4ghz computer to a crawl. I'm praying that they get this fixed because I love the music service.

Review Roundup: Supersonic Search Engines
Search is no longer the sleepy, "Google-has-it cornered" market it was just a few years ago. Instead, it's a hotbed of competitive action, with several new choices for searching the Web and your desktop files. We take a look at the new landscape and five new products in our special report.
Someone at Google has a politicial sense of humour! Enjoy! cf below.
This is funny . . . but do it before Google fixes it.
1) Go to Google.com. (click here www.google.com )
2) Type in "weapons of mass destruction" but don't hit the enter button.
3) Instead, hit the "I'm feeling lucky" button next to the normal Google "Search" button.
4) An "ERROR MESSAGE" appears. READ the ERROR MESSAGE CAREFULLY.

Wednesday Aug 11, 2004 As Google IPO flounders, Yahoo rallies
As negative press swirled around search-engine titan Google leading up to its IPO, its arch-rival Yahoo (YHOO) shook off recent weakness to rally more than 4 percent Tuesday. Part of the jump stems from Yahoo's recent settlement with Google over patent infringement. Yahoo had sued Google, charging that its search illegally uses technology from Yahoo-owned Overture. In the settlement, Yahoo gained a healthy 8.2 million Google shares, 1.6 million of which it plans to sell upon Google's IPO. That would mean a $195 million windfall for Yahoo, if Google shares sell for $121.50, as expected.

 The weakness of Google Despite the hype around its IPO, Google is not certain to be an internet winner
EVERY day this week Buttonwood has tapped the words “Google” and “IPO” into the Google search engine. On Monday there were 269,000 hits; on Tuesday, as the crescendo of speculation about when the company would announce its stockmarket flotation reached Mahlerian proportions, there were 293,000. Two days later the company put everyone out of their misery, announcing a quirky, Dutch auction-style share offering and appointing Morgan Stanley and Credit Suisse First Boston to lead the issue. By Friday the number of hits had shot up to a whisker under half a million. Google's IPO, reported the Wall Street Journal, “could trigger a new wave of IPO filings among other technology companies”. Recalling the listing of Netscape in 1995, which kicked off the dotcom bubble, its reporters go on to say: “With nearly insatiable investor interest, it could put a price tag of $25 billion on a company that didn’t exist a decade ago.” To those many technology junkies in this dangerous state of euphoria, Buttonwood has one word of advice: resist. ....Rare was the company that traded on a price-to-earnings (p/e) multiple of more than 20, because waiting twenty years to get your money back seemed more than a little risky if the company was unlikely to be around in ten.
Wednesday Apr 28, 2004 First and foremost, Google's IPO - a return to the High tech Bubble mania, or something altogether different? Bankers have said a Google offering could value the company at as much as $25 billion.
