That priced the latter at $15,000,000,000 or five hundred times expected earnings for 2007! Now I actually really like Facebook. It's clean, the guys running it are smart, and tons of people I know are really into it. They got a great audience, growing fast, and all that jazz. But an evaluation of five hundred times earnings! If that doesn't taste like bubble gum, I don't...http://www.37signals.com/svn/posts/670-can-microsoft-buy-cool-from-facebook Podcast: The Great Twitter Debate Bad Ass Berkowitz vs OMG Owyang- October 24, 2007 I had the absolute pleasure to be involved in a geek fight with the always thoughtful David Berkowitz, a friend and respected peer of mine in the industry.

Who can blame him We agree. If you work at a big company and you've ever had to do something that should be simple, like file an expense report, make changes to your salary withholdings or, heck, if you've ever tried to apply for a job at a big company then you've probably encountered these confounding user experiences.

He cites two examples where he feels they acted unethically. In one example, the reporter seems to use off the record comments exactly as they are supposed to. Most non-disclosures require that you keep the information confidential, but only until someone else discloses the information to you.

Fears mounted that the infernos, which have already scorched almost 300,000 acres, could become the most expensive fire in California history.
