UC Berkeley on Google Video [Google video] “The content on this page — drawn from campus seminars, courses and events — is just one part of UC Berkeley’s commitment to the broadest possible dissemination of knowledge for the benefit of our state, the nation and the world.”
Harvard prof holds law class in the virtual world of Second Life [ZDNet Education] “Harvard Law professor Charles R. Nesson is offering a course called CyberOne: Law in the Court of Public Opinion.”
VideoEgg gets a jolt of VC [BusinessWeek] “The deal involves $12 million that investors are putting into the current round. It’s not clear exactly how large a stake the investors purchased, although it is believed to be about 20%. It’s also unclear how much each investor is committing to the current round, or what the size of their individual stakes will be.”
Yahoo buys web video editing startup Jumpcut [Qformat] “We want people to come to Jumpcut or elsewhere and create video and share it wherever they are on the Web. Our goal is to be easier than desktop editing.”
MySpace may be worth $15 billion [Reuters] “Rohan said MySpace could demonstrate a value of between $10 billion and $20 billion within a few years. Acknowledging he was making an “audacious claim” he justified the forecast on the basis of MySpace’s “raw, unprecedented user/usage growth.”
Mini Linux PC breaks $100 barrier [Linux Devices] “Cost drops to $85 in large volumes, the company adds.”
