CAN HAS SCOBLE? DO WANT!

Matt Schlicht and Mazyar "Mazy" Kazerooni, the teenage minds behind OpenHulu, have created a lolcats-Robert Scoble mashup called LolScobles. What does Scoble think? "Just find a goofy image of me and go to lolScobles.com. Oh, boy. That shouldn't be too hard!" Thanks for being a good sport, Bobby!

OpenHulu getting hate mail, acquisition offers

While NBC Universal and News Corp. keep Hulu, their online-video joint venture, under invitation-only wraps, OpenHulu, an independent website which appears to be legally embedding Hulu videos, is actually starting to earn some cash.
