You’re Dead, Unless You Tweet Otherwise Short version – a false report about renowned Dutch DJ Tiësto dying in a car accident spread via Twitter, was talked about so much that it ended up in trending topics, and was ultimately denied by the man himself via his own Twitter account.
I increasingly find it disturbing that false information can make the rounds so quickly these days, and I’ve sadly long realized this is an unstoppable, irreversible yet disheartening trend.
Somewhat longer version – ... #TC #Featured #Twitter Zobacz wpis

MySpace UK Traffic Is Half What It Used To Be (And Morale Is Down, Too) The number of visitors to MySpace UK has halved in the last six months, TechCrunch Europe has learned, leading to a fresh round of layoffs at the London office of the social networking site.
According to internal figures that we've seen, monthly visits to MySpace UK are down from a peak of just under 10 million at the start of the year to around 5m as of the end of June 2010. If indeed this is the case - and we have every rea... #TC #MySpace Zobacz wpis

How Steam Stopped Me From Pirating Games And Enjoy The Sweet DRM Kool-Aid Note: A reader sent us this interesting take on Steam and DRM, but requested to stay anonymous due to the nature of the article. We of course obliged.
Up until a few weeks ago, the last PC game I purchased and didn’t pirate was Team Fortress 2 via the digital download service, Steam. The last PC game I purchased in a retail box was Half Life 2. Yet like many, I’ve still managed to play every PC hit over the last decade. I s... #TC #Drm #Steam Zobacz wpis

Opera/Chrome Rivalry Gets The Hitler Video Treatment When Opera Software last week released the final version of its Opera browser (version 10.60), it titled its press release ‘What is faster than the fastest?’.
The company touts other features, like built-in geolocation and webM support, as well but not nearly as much as it boasts about its browser’s speed. By doing so, the software maker aims to challenge claims that Google’s Chrome browser is, in fact, speedier than Opera and other popular br... #TC #Google #Googlechrome #Chrome #Opera #OperaSoftware #Opera1060 Zobacz wpis

Two Takes on the Mac v. PC Debate This holiday weekend Matt and I decided to write a point-counterpoint to the Mac/PC debate. You can check out our two posts and comment/howl in outrage over at CrunchGear.
The Three Mac Features I Want On My Next PC
Macs suck. They’re overpriced, underpowered, and nothing more than disgusting status symbols. But I still want one. Well, sort of. I don’t want to give up the PC’s wide range of hardware options available or Windows 7 or, well, my dignity. So I guess... #TC #Mac #Pc Zobacz wpis

Diaspora Reports Progress In Its Quest To Build An Open Facebook Alternative It’s been exactly one month after Diaspora, which aims to become an open Facebook alternative (much like OneSocialWeb and others) raised just over $200,000 in funding from Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg and others through Kickstarter.
Since then, it’s been quiet, but the team of four NYU students has been making some progress in actually building the system.
In a blog post, Maxwell Salzberg updates the world on its progre... #TC #Facebook #Diaspora Zobacz wpis

Google: Chrome OS Still On Track For This Year Thanks To “Deep Bench Of Talent” Perhaps you’ve heard the news by now that Matthew Papakipos, the key architect of Chrome OS, is leaving Google to go to Facebook. While it’s not entirely clear what Papakipos will be doing yet at Facebook beyond joining the engineering team, this is massive news. This is the key component of Chrome OS leaving the company before its launch to join what can perhaps be seen as Google’s most important competitor going for... #TC #Featured #Google #ChromeOs #Facebook Zobacz wpis

Decoding Microsoft’s Fantastic Passive-Agressive Numbers Post Yesterday, Microsoft communications head Frank Shaw put up a post on The Official Microsoft Blog rattling off some numbers regarding many of Microsoft’s products. The intention was obviously to lend some perspective to some of the negative coverage Microsoft has been getting recently. There’s no way around it, the numbers are impressive. And I think it’s smart for Shaw (and Microsoft) to do things like this.
That said, I wish Shaw woul... #TC #Featured #Apple #Google #Microsoft #Salesforce Zobacz wpis

Google Voice Desktop App Launch Delayed, May Be Scrapped When Google acquired Gizmo5, a Skype competitor, in November Google Voice users rejoiced – presumably they’d be getting a much needed soft phone on the desktop for users to make and receive calls through Google Voice.
We confirmed that the application had been rewritten and was being tested internally at Google in April. Some Google employees continue to use the app, we’ve confirmed.
But don’t expect it to launch publicly any time soon, we... #TC #Gizmo5 #Google Zobacz wpis
