Everyone was talking about it at Starbucks this AM. We even got interviewed by a Mercury News reporter.
It was pretty strong and about 10-20 seconds. It felt like riding the subway in Paris at times, but of course way more scary because we didn’t know right then if this was the “big one” that’s supposed to be overdue.
Sort of interesting the fact that when this kind of things happen, you instinctively try to call someone on the phone. Nothing like a nice 5.6 shake up 6 or 7 miles from your house to put a few things into perspective.

Raw thoughts on this one from my iPhone at Starbucks…
1) Superb corporate move by OMTR, which one again impresses everyone. I saw their market cap topping $2B this AM, incredible.
2) Nice outcome for the WebSideStory guys! $400M is a big payout and I’m sure Coremetrics and others are feeling good about their exit options right now.
3) New opportunities in the Web analytics and digital marketing space to emerge: as all the web analytics vendors are all busy fighting omniture, and omniture is busy buying off companies, I bet smaller/ agile startups will try to enter this market which must now be on every VCs radar.
4) Now most important: is this good for the customer? Yes. More M&A activity = more investment = more innovation. We have a few interesting years ahead of us.

Argentina 34-France 10. Ouch. We’re talking about rugby here, world cup. 2 weeks earlier France had beaten the All Blacks (best team in the world) and of course, we felt like WE were the best Rugby team… Then we lost against England and now Argentina. So French - capable of the best, and the worst. Alas, next chance to win the title: 2011.

Just discovered InstantDomainSearch.com this weekend and I’ve been
hooked since then. Of all the tools I’ve used in the past to check
domain names, this one is the absolute best. Proof that there is still
room (and value) for UI development.
