- Nice rally on Wall Street! Volume looks a little light at first glance, though. The past week we have seen rallies on light volume and sell-offs on heavier volume.

- Craigslist CEO asks for apology. Hey, how many folks are tearing out their rose gardens as I type because they no longer need to barter with the Craigslist "rose" currency?
- ATT may offer data plans cheaper, but will it cost you more? Think about it, as they make a lot of money with overage charges on text messages, why not get the same thing going with data usage?

Again, the union doesn't seem to understand that those union contracts are what led GM here.
- I saw Star Trek over the weekend. Great flick.
- Folks are upset that SlingPlayer mobile for the iPhone only works over wi-fi, as ATT doesn't want to see heavier data drains on their network. HELLO.
