The Apprentice

Breean's pick Troy was fired. As Trump said, it came down to a guy with a high school diploma who's shown real leadership and a Harvard MBA who's been elected team leader three times and never shown much of anything (no surprise there!). I was surprised when Trump chose to keep the Harvard guy.

Two people get fired next week. And our favorite Omarosa will come back.

Google mail

Google Drops an E-Mail Bomb. Free web-based email with 1GB of storage (that's a lot) and google search capabilities on your inbox. Nobody seems to know if it's a joke or not but BWeek doesn't think so because of Google's plans to go public.

Google will add unobtrusive text ads targeting the content of e-mail. For example, if a Gmail user receives a message about the NCAA basketball finals, then Google will put a hoops- or sports-related ad into the e-mail. Those ads, wagers Google President Larry Page, will more than pay for the cost of giving users so much space.

I've used a searchable mail program for a while now and I can attest that it is tremendously useful.
