Read/WriteWeb Daily

The Daily is back, now that I’m over my jet lag 🙂

edgecaseScoble: I’m not an edge case (If you listen carefully, you’ll hear me whoop near the end of Scoble’s excellent outburst. I’ve never whooped in my entire life – yet here I am carrying on like I’m on the Oprah Show…)

Alex Barnett’s ‘Edge Case’ series on Flickr (caption to pic on left: “If someone calls me an edge case….”)

Dion Hinchcliffe on Live Labs (Microsoft’s think tank and incubator is indeed an interesting project — the best part for me is that they’re going to invite external people, and not just scientists either, to play a part)

Product Development: TV Guide will roll their own (cool – I did some analysis work on this…)

Rumors of a Google homepage makeover (here’s a screenshot c/- Flickr… I like the look of it)

Google misses Street targets, shares tumble (“[this] ended the uninterrupted winning streak Google has had since its August 2004 public offering.”)

Apple analyst predicts big things (sees “potential for new iBooks by April […], a potential “media hub” product (and more services), new iPods into year-end (including a new media player) and even a new cell phone within a year.”)

Ben has details of Aussie 2.0 action (Yahoo7, NewsCorp’s truelocal.com.au, Fairfax – all ramping up for a Web media battle)

The Online Storage Gang (TechCrunch has an excellent reference and analysis piece on online storage solutions, sure to be one of the key products on the Web by the end of this year. Great to see aussie company OmniDrive as their pick!)

Mining the Two Types of User-Supplied Content (Josh ponders the data mining efforts of Yahoo and Google)

Internet Explorer 7 Beta 2 Preview released ( Dave Winer says it’s significant because it’s “the first Microsoft release that includes comprehensive support for RSS not only on the producing side, but also on the consuming side.”)
