Sean Earp, of Microsoft, is one of a few people I’ve seen gushing about a new version of Microsoft’s search engine coming soon (they have a search press event coming on September 26th).

Thank you to David Armano who reported on the work of some real-world heroes. Where did he do that? On Twitter, of course.

Three highschool kids. Heroes.

…for Robert Scoble and Facebook.

Me? I had a good excuse. Maryam is pregnant and needed me at home today.

Hmmm.

John McCrea of Plaxo says that Yahoo, Microsoft, AOL, and Google were there. But not Facebook.
