So basically they are the ones who got hacked, pknic should be in the headline. Markmonitor manages a lot of the most important domains worldwide, so i guess pknic got a very angry call.

This space is very competitive, if FB ads earn publishers significantly less than DoubleClick then nobody will use it. It's a numbers game. Google is in this space for almost a decade now and it's still small compared to Search. The big thi

True, but you can expand that. It is a long term strategy. They are sitting on 120B that is just in some hedge funds anyway, why not do something with it that has a competitive advantage. They just have no plan.... Give this money Amazon or

Buy T-Mobile pump 50+ Billion into infrastructure and make the iPhone the only unlimited LTE receiver by simply buying one. You have the best network so a lot will join with their contracts. Make tons of profit there. I think Apple has a re

You simply can't ignore Android, the biggest mobile OS and its doesn't get starved if iOS developers earn 30% more. I think about a bold move like buying Verizon or so. But in my opinion Apple is losing by simple being Apple. They can't kee

Don't forget that Google has a better advertising than Bing so they can offer more for the search deals. They can easily overbid Bing if Microsoft doesn't blow money into it again. When there are a lot of players, they have the upper hand i

http://www.businessinsider.com/meet-the-next-ceo-of-microsof... Sinofsky was just too popular? Ballmer's CEO position is not sacrosanct. Some internal guy being a prominent public figure is the biggest risk for him i guess.

This looks like a PR move, nobody knows their algorithm. Similar situation to Google, what comes on top of the stream? I mean you pay to manipulate it, so there is no neutrality to begin with. The paid concept is flawed, think about it: You

This stuff makes this company so incredibly unlikable. Maybe some uninformed consumers don't see it, but for informed people Apple loses sympathy every day with this behavior.

China, it's almost non existent anywhere else. Even the "enterprise" upgraded to IEX but they probably skip IE7 when they do that. For intranet stuff maybe still some IE6, but not much left i guess.
