LOL of the day: Safari goes Windows

Now what was he thinking?

Steve Jobs announced monday at the Apple WWDC conference that the Apple browser will be ported to Windows aiming to gain share in the market and to lure Windows users to Mac. I think it will rather scare them away

Funny enough but then, just hours later…

David Maynor discovered 4 DoS bugs and 2 remote execution vulnerabilities.

At the same time Thor Larholm found a URL protocol handler command injection vulnerability.

Now that’s a good start!

PayPerPost raises $ 7 millions

Advertising, Web 2.0 No Comments »

PayPerPost (Reach & Traffic) a marketplace for Consumer Generated Advertising which connects bloggers and advertiser raised additional $7 million in their second financing round (total capital now over $ 10 million).

PayPerPost is often considered being controversial.
But frankly, companies often try to use bloggers for their misunderstood viral and guerilla campaigns (Remember Calvin Klein’s embarrassing ckin2u campaign?) So why not do it openly and organized? This would save companies many awkward backlashes.
