That is an odd combination really isn't it? I mean to say where is the benefit for ebay in getting SU? No real crossover between their services.

That is a strange buyout.

I agree about Google getting me all peeved....I try to follow Matt Cutts blog as often as I can, but most of what he presents is another way for Google to control the internet and the people that build the internet. I can't wait for Google to go down.

I don't believe that stumbleupon is that good an investment.

Google has changed a lot over the past years. They seem to be forgetting what brought them to the top.
