Weekend Update 2.21.09
This weekend, AllThingsD is distributing awards for Best Performance in a ToS Slapdown, Fastest-Disappearing Subscriber Base, and Best Conference to Attend In February If It’s Cold Where You Live. If everyone keeps their remarks on topic, things should move along quickly.
BoomTown followed this week’s Facebook drama from the first rumblings of dissatisfaction (and jaded irony) with the copyright changes in the social network’s terms of service on through to full-on rallying cries by the likes of Perez Hilton for mass desertion. The drama ended-for now-with CEO Mark Zuckerberg’s public apology and rollback of the changes. If you don’t speak Facebook, you’ll be relieved to know that BoomTown’s provided a handy translation. Also, Yahoo (YHOO) CEO "Hurricane Carol" Bartz found an appreciative audience in BoomTown for her Friday Memos, which discuss topics as closely interrelated as the company’s maybe-impending re-org and Saturday night chick flicks.
