Jawed Karim gave an interesting lecture this week at U of I. If you didn’t know, he is one of the founders of YouTube - which if you didn’t know or have been living under a rockВ - was acquired recently by Google. Check out the article that Liz wrote for GigaOm.

Simply Hired which is partially funded by Fox Interactive seems to be a good job site according to TechCrunch.

Maya’s Mom raised funding in the Angel round. According to TechCrunch they are like Yahoo answers meets Facebook.

ChatterBlocker. I saw this last night, and figured I’d let everyone know about it today. Technically Speaking, without a demo or something to check out, there is really not much I can say about this!
