A news for all scrabble fans. EA has launched mobile scrabble[1]. Now spend time improving your vocabulary on the go. ReadWriteWeb features a good article on google custom search[2]. Can be depicted as CUSTOMSEARCH-101. A nice read i would say. Talking of google, they have revamped their book search. It now allows you to create your own book collections. There is a news for our developer friends as well. Try out Bungeelabs and nirvanix to build next gen webapps. Bungeelabs is a webservices platform which is being touted as platform of future, and nirvanix allows you to get REST/SOAP based access to your data. Try it out, might be interesting, and please post your views as well. Duncan Riley was seen again speculating about Twitter outage as some sugar coating stuff. Give them some time dude! They will explain! . Leaving Duncan back, Zoho is about to launch ZohoBusiness suite at office2.0 web conference today. Looks like we have now a real “option”. Well done guys!

Steve Jobs is biting dust after yesterday’s declaration about $200 price cut on iPhone. Early adopters like Om Malik, and Robert Scoble have left no stone unturned. Well! they have all right to do so, as waiting in the line to get hold of this funky gadget was no less than conquering Mt. Everest. But Isn’t it a bit funny? Don’t tell me that these guys did not know about price coming down some day. But then Jobs is jobs. He declared $100 discount on apple products for all such “poor” people. :-) ). Press in interesting. First create a fuss, then add to that fuss, make people stand in a queue, then regret standing in line.
