Google acquires Feedburner

Friday, June 1st, 2007

I read something where someone said Google should acquire feedburner. I only noticed because I just went to feedburner.com and saw their new disclaimer. I kind of liked the separate entity of Feedburner, but their voice seems to match well with Google. We will see.

Perhaps there will be feed integration into Google analytics. Seeing all of my eggs in the Google basket is all fun and games until they start misbehaving, let’s hope it doesn’t happen.

You have 14 days to opt out of feedburner giving Google your data.

Good times.

About a month ago I decided it was time for me to bring a calendar into my life. It seems up until recently I have faired well with keeping everything organized in my head. And then a weekend came where I had three events to go to, which I had assumed were all on different nights (friday, saturday, sunday) and they all ended up being on the same night. No good.

I’m a Mac user by night and a PC user by day, so I couldn’t use one of the available desktop calendars. Believe me, I was tempted by iCal. We’ll see when the iPhone comes out. Anyhow, I decided to go with Google Calendar and I am very pleased for the most part. It’s extremely easy to use and does a nice job of allowing me to collaborate with others using the Google Calendar service.
