AllThingsD's Kara Swisher And Peter Kafka Are Not Invited To Tomorrow's Yahoo Event

Sun, 19 May 2013 19:22:18 -0400

bymichaelandrew:

This is not the first time this has ever happened, and this will not be the last either. Seems like a pretty stupid move on Yahoo’s side though, if you ask me. They’re essentially telling the media not to do their jobs if they want to be invited to the company events.

Pretty dumb.

“

The only sensible move is for Nintendo to take its brands to other formats, but that’s an argument we’ve had so many times. As Rob Fahey argued a few weeks ago, Nintendo can afford to have a failed console around its neck, but it can’t afford to damage its most valuable assets, its IP.

The brands will live on. But the Wii U is a dead man walking.

A sad day for the console.

Tumblr’s Teenaged, Double-Edged Sword | TechCrunch:

Now children have the Internet. And Tumblr has become their platform for those universal, familiar urges at self-expression falling somewhere in between the diary, the slam book and the cork board. Notes on Tumblr blogs range from mundane (“ive been telling myself ill start my homework soon for the last 4 hours,”) to the confessional (“a cute necklace for school tomorrow” which accompanies a picture of a noose – a note whose message would terrify parents and other adults, but appears to only be commentary on the horrors of high school life).

A great read about tumblr. What do you think?

““Knowing our footprint is so vast, you can really see this thing taking off and giving us an opportunity to take the ACC and compete across the board with every conference and take it into all those households,” Syracuse coach Scott Shafer said. “It’s an exciting time to be a part of that.””

- Different vibe at this year’s ACC meetings - ACC Blog - ESPN

The ACC has never been stronger. Syracuse made a wise decision to join. I’m very hopeful for the future of Syracuse University sports. This has been a long time coming.

This is a great dunk. It’s special because C.J. Fair dunked on Georgetown’s Otto Porter in an overtime Big East Tournament game that Syracuse won.

Junior Alyssa Murray tied her career high with 10 points to lead No. 4 seed Syracuse to a 21-8 win against Dartmouth in the second round of the NCAA Women’s Lacrosse Tournament. The Orange has now won 12 consecutive games and advances to the Elite Eight for the seventh time in the last eight years where it will face Florida on Saturday, May 18 at 2 p.m. in the Carrier Dome in a rematch of last year’s national semifinal.
