		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;m surprised no one is talking about a potential IM app from Facebook.  I&#8217;d bet a lot of money they&#8217;ll launch one soon - and it&#8217;s going to crush.  The buddy list is already in place.
The idea of a buddy grid that lets you access your friends&#8217; web services via IM client is a very [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[eBay plans to buy StumbleUpon according to Om, who asks if eBay might want to integrate StumbleUpon search-like technology into the Skype client.  I think it&#8217;s the other way around.  StumbleUpon is the distribution point.
A few points to consider:
-    Browser toolbars are becoming an increasingly large source of search traffic [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Om Malik, Mike Arrington, and others have been harshing on Cisco&#8217;s recent acquisitions in the social networking space, and have implied that Cisco might want to be the next MySpace.  They&#8217;re off the mark, for a few reasons.
First of all, Cisco&#8217;s acquiring technology assets (and software employees) on the cheap.  It&#8217;s not buying [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Richard MacManus has put forward a nice write-up on why startups must specialize to survive, but I have to disagree on his assessment that the long-term prospects favor specialists over generalists.
Long-term prospects favor market share incumbents, not niche providers.  Start-ups tend to specialize because they have to in order to gain any share, not because [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[GigaOM reports that Google Finance will be announcing an upgrade soon.  Please tell me they&#8217;ve included a feature to automatically import Yahoo! Finance portfolios.  Because if you can&#8217;t provide seamless switching costs, and a similar experience (plus more and better), then you ain&#8217;t getting the Yahooligans over.  Because this demo ain&#8217;t about [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Yahoo! is getting torn up in the sphere this week, as Fred Wilson calls for a strategy of de-portalization (or whatever it should be called), and Richard Koman uses the *M* word (Media!) to describe the company.
The reports of Yahoo!&#8217;s demise are greatly exaggerated.  The company&#8217;s model is not inherently flawed.  And it&#8217;s [...]]]></description>
