"Was yesterday’s hurried Google Chrome OS announcement designed to steal some of Microsoft’s thunder ahead of a big launch on Monday? Robert Scoble certainly thinks so, and although he can’t say what that big news is, Long Zheng speculates that it might be the launch of the Microsoft Office web app. The timing is right: The Office 2010 Technical Preview ships this month to invitation-only testers and close integration of a new web app with the next version of Office is a logical move." - ~C4Chaos from Bookmarklet

Google Docs is great for simple editing and collaboration but it sorely lacks in more advanced word processing features. For business and enterprise users who produce/publish reports, advanced style editing is a must. Google needs to look at this area more seriously if it wants to be competitive in the office apps marketplace. - Anthony Pantekoek

""How sad that Washington and the media will never understand; it's about country," the statement said. "And though it's honorable for countless others to leave their positions for a higher calling and without finishing a term, of course we know by now, for some reason a different standard applies for the decisions I make."" - Russ Jackson from Bookmarklet

Take that Nico Pitney question the MSM threw a mini-tantrum over. The actual question was "Under which conditions would you accept the election of Ahmadinejad, and if you do accept it without any significant changes in the conditions there isn't that a betrayal of what the demonstrators there are working for?". That's not a softball. - Andrew C

Sounds like an extremely harsh side-effect... - Anthony Pantekoek

"Via LiveLeak comes this shocking video, apparently from a traffic cam of some sort, of a high-speed scooter crash. It involves two scooters who come roaring down the street, and the lead scooter slips sideways and smashes into the front left of an oncoming car, shattering his scooter. The driver of that scooter flies forward and bounces of a second incoming car in what looks to be a very serious injury." - Anthony Pantekoek from Bookmarklet

"If you look at recent events in Iran through the lens of oil, money and power, you won't go too far wrong." - Anthony Pantekoek from Bookmarklet

"Wayson Choy has cheated death not once, but twice, and lived to write about it. The Canadian author is best known for his novels and memoir about growing up in Vancouver's Chinatown of the 1940's. In his latest book, he recounts his brushes with death and how they changed him. It's called "Not Yet: A Memoir of Living and Almost Dying"." - Anthony Pantekoek from Bookmarklet

"BEIJING - I confess, 20 years ago I was in Tiananmen Square. I knew many students; I talked to them then and still talk to them. Then, they wanted democracy and revolution.
