Earlier this week it was announced that Groupon was preparing to go public. While this was interesting it was not a huge wave maker, that and everyone is still waiting for Facebook to go public, it is sure to be as popular as Google was when it went public. But then Friday Zynga announced that is was going public and that was something that peaked my interest. Zynga does something, it makes games, games played by millions of people around the world. Zynga is estimated to be worth $14.5 billion due to hits like FarmVille, FishVille and Mafia Wars just to name a few. Zynga is sure to make a lot of money on its opening day. Unlike Linkedln and Groupon Zynga makes money. Groupn has lost $527 million last year and the 1st quarter of this year combined, and Linkedln only made $15 million last year and before that is virtually made no money 
at all. If you are a risk taker and like to make fast money I would seriously advise you to take all of your money and invest in Zynga when it goes public, I will. I am giving this news 2 Digits Up for sure.
Microsoft confirmed that Monday March 14th it will be releasing it's much "improved" Internet Explorer 9. They have said that Internet Explorer 9 will be a massive overhaul for Microsoft's browser, bringing much-needed HTML5 support, speed improvements and hardware acceleration. I find this hard to believe. I jumped on the Internet Explorer 8 bandwagon late, super late, and it was by force. I could not play games or visit certain sites until I upgraded, so I finally did. At first it was great. I used the Yahoo version and I enjoyed it. Then I got a new computer and I guess Microsoft got pissed that the Yahoo version was running too well and I could no longer get that version anymore, so I had to get the regular version. It turned out to be crap, hardcore crap on a stick waving in my face. It is slow to close other tabs, it freezes often, very often, almost every time I want to close a tab. Do not even think about asking it to close a group of tabs, you just screwed yourself! But now I am supposed to believe that Internet Explorer 9 is the answer, the end all be all. This is false. Microsoft makes thing
s that are slightly better than the last thing, forces you to get them and then makes them crappy so that you are forced to get their next product that will be out in less than a year, I see where Steve Jobs learned his techniques from, though they all learned from Ford and Chevrolet. I am already going to give Internet Explorer 9 a Digit Down because I know it is going to suck and it is going to frustrate us all.
