Google
Base goes live. Its a very interesting idea: presense without
persistence. Its the "I need a place to post on a whim." The examples
given of items that people might want to post include party and event
planning services, recipes, a used car listing and genome of the 1918
influenza pandemic. The variety is there and it simply amounts to more
searchable content. I like the interface. The problem, of course, is
that there is no way to tell if any of its actually valid... (but then
some say that is true of the web in general ;-)
