- Amazon bought partnered with Zappos.

- ChromeOS is a threat to Microsoft (we have to hold back our laughter).

- A Chinese Foxconn/Apple worker commits suicide, the American media acts like this is the only suicide EVER in Asia… what ever happened to fact checking?

- The mess over the new DiggBar, and Kevin Rose’s snotty Twitter messages, earn Rose and the company as a whole the “Dickwad of the Week” award.

- Amazon deletes Geroge Orwell books… it’s a puzzler at the heart of it and deals with copyrights.
