CobWEBs Daily Edition podcast: Where we wonder what all the yelping is about

cbn1-podpost While Sean and I may have YAWNed over much of the news that was out there today that didn’t stop us from finding some things to talk about. Such as the news that Rackspace went down for a period of time and that it was all Robert Scoble’s fault .. well not really but he was the handy scapegoat since he works for the company.

We then followed that earth shattering news with a discussion about the possible purchase of Yelp by Google. $500 million bucks – that is the price being bandied about and neither one of us can figure out why.

The last part of the show accidentally ended up with us talking about one of our favorite blogs – the up and coming The Next Web. If you aren’t subscribed to them you should be.
