Google Browser?

Wow. Google wants its hand in everything. According to an aritcle in the NYPost Google may be attempting to build a Web Browser. They have recently hired top developers from Sun and Microsoft who worked on Java and IE respectively. This could be huge.

They have also hired John Baeda, lead developer of the Avalon display technology for Microsoft's Operating System codenamed Longhorn

Is it flattery, or...?

While going through my server logs this morning I came across goatballsfind.com. Please don't be afreaid of the link. It's rather humorous. Someone has taken the front page of bobafind.com and replaced all the occurences of the words boba, and bubble with "goat balls". Something interesting: the AdSense unit is still delivering "Bubble Tea" ads, even though the words boba and bubble tea have been removed.

Special thanks to Kurt Dresner for this mornings humor.

Owner of Fusion Bubble tea opens new location in Longview, WA

Barry Isenhart, owner of Fusion Bubble Tea in Vancouver, WA opened a new Bubble Tea location in Longview earlier this summer. A friend of mine had mentioned that they enjoyed bubble tea this summer on the way to Long Beach, WA. I wish Barry all the luck in the world. His Vancouver location seems to be very busy on weeknights, around lunchtime during the day and weekends.
