Deportalization and Internet Advertising
Glam hired a new guy today. Techcrunch, VentureBeat and PaidContent all posted about it. All of the reporting on this hire focus on Glam's coup in getting their man, and on their profitability heading into Q4. There is little in the way of analysis, which is probably quite reasonable on a news-filled Monday morning here on the West Coast.. As TechCrunch's Jason Kincaid reports: Glam Media h...
Real Time Streams
John Borthwick has captured in words what many have been grappling with in a less articulate way for about 18 months. The new paradigm we need to think about the internet has finally emerged. This snippet outlines the broad trend: Start with this constant, real time, flowing stream of data getting published, republished, annotated and co-opt’d across a myriad of sites and tools. The s...
In Defense of “nothing”
Columnist Henry Porter is generally considered to be a wise observer of the human condition. Today, in an article in the UK Guardian owned Sunday, The Observer, he blew it ..... badly. As a newspaper man he ought to have been aware of his almost certain bias and perhaps counted to ten before pushing "send".

RSS has peaked! – Forrester. Nope, it hasn’t! – Me
Forrester released a report today ($279 download if you want it). Titled "What's holding RSS back?" it claims that only 11% of Internet consumers use RSS and that those who have not don't understand it.

OpenID and Data Portability
Nicolas Popp - a leading advocate of Open Identity and data solutions - posted on his VeriSign blog today following the rather heated discussions that have ensued since Google announced its Friend Connect product recently. Nico's employer - VeriSign - along with Microsoft, Yahoo, Google, AOL and others, is a member of the board of the OpenID foundation.Nico's primary argument (emphasis mine) is...
Google and the newspapers
Over the long labor day weekend Google announced a serious change in the way Google News will relate to the various wire services and the newspaper industry. The change could have a dramatic impact on the traffic Google News sends to newspaper web sites. There have been several commentaries on the developments and Techmeme has been a great source tracking them. The New York Times, ironica...

edgeio secures $5m series A financing

Posted By: Keith Teare on October 23, 2006 in Internet, announcement, edgeio - Comments: 0 Comments

edgeio_logo.jpgI may be biased but I think edgeio is one day going to be a great company :-)

Well today we made a few announcements and several people have picked up on them.

Firstly, we have secured a Series A round of financing, led by Intel Capital. Secondly we have launched a Chinese language web site at mulu100.com. Thirdly we have completed the filing of our patent application, originally initiated in October 2005.

There is a lot more coming from us, and some of it quite soon. But this is a great day for me and my partners, Mike Arrington, Matt Kaufman and Vidar Hokstad, and for those who have joined us since we launched. Its also great for our angel investors, our customers and our partners.

Rob Hof has covered the news here. Techmeme here And Venturebeat here Greg Sterling here
