Picked up this nice news yesterday—NowPublic Acquires Truemors—which not only makes Guy happy I’m sure, but I think it adds a nice and interesting facet to NowPublic.
NowPublic is fantastic for expanding local coverage of news and giving people the chance to give their spin on it.
Truemors, of course, is more for those rumours that we’d […]
I don’t think Yahoo can catch a break lately. Man you have the over publicized battle with Microsoft (I doubt we’ve seen the last act of this saga), execs, managers, and just regular folks leaving in droves. This just isn’t something that I’d like to wake up to everyday (headlines like this don’t help either: […]
ThoughtFarmer released version 3.0 of their Intranet system—I’m glad they’ve stopped calling it a wiki—which is expanding on the already impressive feature set:ThoughtFarmer Blog » Announcing ThoughtFarmer Intranet 3.0 Multilingual.
The Intranet system is based on what we’ve been doing in the social media space for years: make it easy for people to create, edit, and […]
Following Mack Male’s Twitter stream this morning (through the web, ggrrr) I caught his blog post with the announcement of the finalists for the New Media Awards:
Most Promising Company of the Year: * b5media, Toronto * Filemobile, Toronto * Viigo, Toronto—Live from nextMEDIA: 2008 Canadian New Media Award Finalists | Techvibes Blog

CBC’s Dragon’s Den is a program where startups face a panel of business leaders and VCs for a chance at winning cash to take their company to the next level.
Like any TV show of this kind, you have to qualify to get on. So to help folks do this … Fundfindr is giving people a […]
Last week at Mesh08, Scribblelive joined the ranks of web-based live blogging tools. Interestingly, this one is also out of Toronto like CoverItLive. While, granted, this is brand new and there a more features coming like a widget to embed, I don’t share Download Squad’s (ScribbleLive: Liveblogging doesn’t get much easier - Download Squad) or […]
Colour me biased, but I’m really into Flock. Yes, I am doing some work with them, but this is awesome news regardless:
Not two weeks after taking the Webby award for Social Networking, last night Flock was honoured to receive two awards at the annual VIATeC Technology Awards dinner. VIATeC is the high-tech industry association serving […]
Call it bragging rights if you wish, but b5media is still on the top of the Toronto Startup index—Toronto Start-up Index - May 2008 | Techvibes Blog.
I don’t know what else needs to be said, except if they counted all the traffic from all our blog properties, we’d blow everyone out of the water, including […]
While I couldn’t be at Casecamp 7 recently, I saw an accordion as the still image for the video report from Rahaf Harfoush on Foush Reports on CaseCamp7 » ThomasPurves.com.
Let’s see, unconference in Toronto, dealing with tech … well it has to be Joey deVilla.
Yep, of course it was.
Great video. Man I wish I could […]
