...if you have no idea what Hummer Winblad, Ubuntu, or Zune are. Which I didn't before today, but now I know that Hummer Winblad is a VC firm in Silicon Valley, on the hotseat right now in the still-going Napster copyright infringement lawsuit after a filing in the case alleged that co-founder Ann Winblad had her staff destroy emails related to the case; Newsnight is a BBC program, piquing the blogosphere after editor Daniel Pearl wrote a blog entry about how technology is changing the news and, more importantly, how bloggers are changing the news, too; Microsoft just confirmed that yes, they're dropping the iPod-challenging Zune music player (no wonder, considering this),; and Ubuntu, is a free Linux-based operating system customisable to the language of the user, named for the African word meaning "humanity to others" or "I am what I am because of what we all are." If only Ubuntu were as popular in the Middle East as on Technorati.
