Miss Me?
I have been offline for a few days, got a case of the lazies. I was up at 5am this am trying to get back on track. Doing my running and stuff to reach my tennis camp goals. I am just 3 lbs away from the magic 200. With two weeks to the day to go (8 work days) I feel confident I will make it. Played some tennis Sunday with my old doubles partner, and we crushed our opponents. We played well but not our best, though this tends to be the case when we get a big lead on people. We are not the best of really laying down the hammer. Work has been slow, probably because I have not been there in days…haven’t really missed much and will be caught up by the end of tomorrow. I saw that Google has once again over paid for a company. I mean really 12 times revenue for Doubleclick? I see Monster as the next big name to be gobbled up. Does anyone recognize the similarities between Monster and Symbol??The same CEO maybe? This would be a nice play for Yahoo or better yet Microsoft, or will the Google boys over pay again? I saw American Idol last night and really Sanjaya is horrible. Lets see if he stays on again. There is part of me that really wants him to win, that would be so funny. I must say though as a country music fan no one really nailed a good country sound….they all went really pop.
I see StumbleUpon is on the blocks…not really sure why its definitely not best in class but seems to be hopping on the acquisition bandwagon. The suitors seem to include eBay, AOl and others. A bad deal all the way around. Update eBay supposedly has a terms sheet in the 40 million range, money well wasted. I am still a huge fan of Scrapbloglets hope they get some suitors with some pockets to really develop the heck out of that.
Well thats all I got for now plus I rambled too much for my first day back anyhow
