It seems that Yahoo and Google are delaying their ad deal to give antitrust investigators from the Justice Department more time. According to Google Execs, the delay will be brief. Google added this: "When we announced our advertising agreement with Yahoo in June, we agreed to delay its implementation until October to give regulators time to look at the details. As we are still in conversation with the Department of Justice we have agreed to a brief delay in implementing the agreement while those discussions continue." Comments ...

Andrea Chalupa writes: Looks like cat's out of that bag as to why EMI was holding out from joining other major labels in turning over music catalogues to MySpace Music , which streamed its billionth song within a week of its launch last month. Though EMI ultimately signed on, it turns out the U.K.-based music company was planning to launch its own music distribution site, EMI.com, the Financial Times reports. The site, which Execs are promising will merely be a "laboratory" or "digital sandbox" of music, will sell downloads--pitting it at least in some respects in competition with MySpace Music, and appears to be yet another attempt by labels to recapture online revenue lost to iTunes and others. Spearheading the site are EMI owner Guy Hands and Google vet Douglas Merrill. But are they really expecting music fans to look to the labels of their favorite artists to buy their music, instead of the one-stop-shops of Rhapsody, iTunes, and now MySpace Music? Downplaying any competitive aspect, EMI says that its new site, which launches this fall, will be more about the promotion of their artists, and fans online won't even know they stumbled onto the label's site--that's how inconspicuous of a marketplace it will be.

Stephen Shankland / CNET News : Google Execs cheery about Silicon Valley economy — MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif.—The national and global economy is suffering something between a setback and a meltdown, but Google's top executives said Wednesday they're bullish about Silicon Valley's economic prospects. ...
Posted by randfish It's been a few weeks since I last posted a headsmacker, but this topic has been begging for some exposure. Recently we've worked with some fellow SEOs who've felt the harsh constraint of overly eager, impatient management. They're campaigns followed solid tactics, stuck to best practices and even had some smart, creative elements, but after a month of middling results, the Execs requested that our friends move on to "higher ROI projects." To be fair, I'm an executive myself (chief something-or-other, I think), so I understand the need for fast, visible results. However, SEO doesn't function in this fashion - never has, and I doubt it ever will. Rare, in fact, are the sites who can make sweeping changes, launch viral content, start some link building campaigns and see immediate success. Why? Lots of reasons: The engines need time to re-crawl your site. For a lucky few, this might take only days or a couple weeks, but for many large sites and even for smaller sites that aren't terrificly high on Google's "must crawl" list, we've seen as much as 3-4 months pass before a site's pages are fully updated. The engines have to crawl all your link partners, too! If you've recently launched some great widgets or viral material or a new content licensing system, it's going to be a solid wait before you experience the full impact of that work. The algorithms reward patience. Even if the engines start to see those links righ ...
If your company ever gets into serious trouble, wouldn't you like to know your lawyer's standing behind you publicly? Better hope you're not represented by Wilson Sonsini, then. After Seattle software startup Entellium saw its CEO and CFO charged with wire fraud and cooking the company's books, Entellium disappeared from Wilson Sonsini Goodrich & Rosati partner Craig Sherman's list of clients . Google's cache shows Entellium was on the list as recently as last Friday . Sherman still represents Ignition Partners, a prominent VC firm which claims Entellium's top Execs defrauded it. We'll give Sherman and Wilson Sonsini credit for good financial judgment: Ignition still has money, while authorities are investigating what happened to the $50 million Entellium raised from Ignition and others ...
Yahoo shares dropped yet again yesterday, closing at $12.65, in a vicious day across Wall Street. That’s a decline of 8.07 percent or $1.11, a worse performance that the 7.3 percent decline in the overall market. This means that Yahoo’s market cap is now at $17.53 billion, which has to make one wonder if perhaps a foreign company, a private equity firm or some outfit with some cash to spare will swoop in and grab it. But, so far, Microsoft has shown no interest in revisiting its failed takeover bid for the troubled Internet giant. It should, given the severe valuation drop Yahoo (YHOO) has suffered, which is much more than the other tech shares have suffered in the continuing decimation of the stock market. Google (GOOG), for example, was off 2.7 percent or $9.13, closing at $328.98 today. Microsoft (MSFT) dropped to $22.30, down 3.1 percent or 71 cents. And Apple (AAPL) lost 1.2 percent, or $1.05, closing at $88.74. What’s fueling the Yahoo plunge? The same worries about Yahoo’s graphical advertising business, its leadership’s ability to do anything to turn the company around and, of course, simple panic. Despite its troubles, Yahoo remains one of the top sites on the Web, has a big share in the search business and a lot of valuable products and services. Yahoo’s third-quarter earnings are coming on Oct. 21, and most expect Execs to outline some indication of cost cuts that have been called for across the company recently. While curr ...
I just read over at InformationWeek that Facebook co-founder Dustin Moskowitz is leaving the company to start his own business with Facebook engineer Justin Rosenstein. Dustin Moskowitz helped design Facebook, the popular social networking site. InformationWeek is reporting via Valleywag that Moskowitz plans to launch a software startup. Evidently CEO Mark Zuckerberg notified Facebook employees in an e-mail. Rosenstein left Google in 2007 to join Facebook. Rosenstein said that the company did with 60 engineers what 600 other engineers could not pull off and was on the verge of "changing the world". Facebook has hired several former Google Execs since then. Read on for the full article ...
The mysterious zzzPhone has popped back into my inbox, with zzzPhone Execs now proclaiming that they're selling low-cost Google Android phones (shown at left), drop-shipped to you straight from China. If you haven't followed the zzzPhone saga , they're a small bunch of Americans who went to China to try to build a business selling cheap phones with lots of features direct to Westerners. I've spoken to both their China-based management team and to zzzPhone's US representative Jesse Nowlin, and I don't think they're scam artists. But I do think they're in over their heads. First, they took a bunch of orders on phones that didn't work in the US, so they couldn't deliver them. Then they started delivering phones, but some of the purchasers seem underwhelmed with what they got. And although I've handled a few of the models - brought to me directly by Nowlin - I haven't seen them successfully deliver a full retail unit to a major reviewer yet. Also, they still seriously need a Web designer and editor. I quote from their site: "per recent reviews, iphone has had problems with dropped calls, not working for people with long fingernails, and a secreet kill switch has been discovered.NOT FULLY LOCKABLE. zzzphone has none of these problems." So handle zzzPhone with caution. The word from southern China this week is that they're installing Android on their phones starting this month. Android phones will start being delivered on Nov. 30, their ...
Jerry Seinfeld's high cost ads for Microsoft may have helped get people talking about the company again, but a new low tech conference commercial making the rounds on the web is actually winning positive commentary for one thing that the Seinfeld and "I'm a PC" ads lacked: self-deprecation. The Internet ad features fictional ad Execs in a pitch meeting and an odd little boy band. Meant to publicize the upcoming Professional Developers Conference where Microsoft will give away 160GB hard drives loaded with Windows 7, it has been circling around without any prime-time buys. While the ad features some of the institutionalized strangeness that seems to spark decisions at Microsoft, it boasts a song that will have Windows 7 stuck in my head for the rest of the morning. Also, it is funny, even if it takes until the end to learn that the makers of the ad are in on the joke.
