 <title>I was thinking the same</title>

 <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;!--paging_filter--&gt;I was thinking the same thing [judgement should be rendered fairly quickly], but we&#039;re still waiting as if this was actually difficult...&lt;/p&gt;

 <title>As salaried employees are</title>
 <link>http://www.theindustrystandard.com/news/2009/01/06/mouse-maker-logitech-cut-525-salaried-employees#comment-9026</link>
 <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;!--paging_filter--&gt;As salaried employees are shown to the door, an employer is wise to retain &lt;a href=&quot;http://legal-beagle.typepad.com/wrights_legal_beagle/2008/10/retain-e-mail-of-former-employees.html&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;archives of their electronic mail&lt;/a&gt;. The archives are an asset to be exploited for purposes of intellectual property, project management, customer relationships and more. --Ben&lt;/p&gt;

 <title>Any smart Yahoo investor</title>
 <link>http://www.theindustrystandard.com/predictions/yahoo-acquires-aol#comment-8995</link>
 <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;!--paging_filter--&gt;Any smart Yahoo investor will dump the stock 1/5/2009 at market open. Dump all shares of YHOO and let it tank.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Sorry but this company has decided to shut everyone out, the Board has breached its responsibilities to investors and the company by not naming an interim CEO due to Jerry Yang&#039;s quitting. It&#039;s time to send them a wakeup call.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Michael Murdock, CEO&lt;br /&gt;

 <title>Let me update everyone...

 <link>http://www.theindustrystandard.com/predictions/suggestions/aol-unloads-xdrive#comment-8874</link>
 <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;!--paging_filter--&gt;Let me update everyone...&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;On November 12 2008 Xdrive LLC part of AOL LLC sent out to Xdrive account holders an AOL Official Mail notifying them that the Xdrive service will be shutting down on January 12 2009. On December 12 2008 Xdrive LLC part of AOL LLC sent a second notice to Xdrive account holders.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Check your SPAM box if you don&#039;t see it in your Inbox especially if you have a non AOL email account.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I would not recommend waiting until the last day. Get it done today...!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I recommend choosing ElephantDrive and to make transferring those digital assets over as easy as possible just click the link &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.elephantdrive.com/m/ct.aspx?ici=267&quot; title=&quot;http://www.elephantdrive.com/m/ct.aspx?ici=267&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;http://www.elephantdrive.com/m/ct.aspx?ici=267&lt;/a&gt; ...this is the Xdrive to ElephantDrive migration page.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;ElephantDrive is the only solution provider working in cooperation with Xdrive using their Open Xdrive API. While competitors of ElephantDrive may offer discounts on their subscription plans you&#039;ll have to do all the work of transferring your digital assets. ElephantDrive is committed to helping every Xdrive account holder make transitioning their digital assets seamless and transparent by using the Xdrive to ElephantDrive migration page.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;ElephantDrive offers packages that are designed to protect the digital assets of individuals, SMBs, and large organizations.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Xdrive consumers with questions about transferring their digital assets over to ElephantDrive can check our Common Questions page.&lt;/p&gt;

 <title>Don&#039;t set your hopes too</title>
 <link>http://www.theindustrystandard.com/predictions/cafescribe-acquired-october-2009#comment-8603</link>
 <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;!--paging_filter--&gt;Don&#039;t set your hopes too high just yet. I have used this program in an online course. It is an absolute, pathetic joke of a program. It needs some major attention if anyone expects it to succeed.&lt;/p&gt;

 <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;!--paging_filter--&gt;This is a done deal regardless if Cuban submitted a bid or not. Decision will NOT be made until Spring which is AFTER the judgment date criteria.&lt;/p&gt;
