Yang leaves Yahoo and the Microsoft / Yahoo! talks start again. At the moment it looks like Microsoft are offering $20 Billion for Yahoo!
More to come….
I stumbled across Quarkbase today and I thought it was a really interesting site. It is especially interesting if you are a blogger or a webmaster like me.
Quarkbase is a simlpe and novel idea. Just enter a website that own or that you are interested in and let Quarkbase go to work. If it is the first time that Quarkbase has seen this site it can take about 30 seconds to gather all of the data.
Today, I entered my site Slave To the Internet to see what information it would gather. And I have to say I’m pretty impressed!
Quarkbase told me how many times my site has been Dugg, the number of pages on Reddit and de.licio.us, my Technorati blog reactions, popular pages, subscriber count, which countries my blog is famous in and a heap more.
Definitely have a look at Quarkbase. It’s fun! After gloating about Slave To the Internet I played around with it for a bit longer and had a look at some of the web’s most popular sites.
Here’s what I found: Google, Yahoo, ProBlogger, IMDb, Alexa, Facebook
