Get Drunked playing Chess with the Shot Glass Chess set
October 9, 2007

You know there comes a time when playing the old ordinary chess set becomes a bore, sure you could spice it up a little with a crystal chess set or similar product but wouldn’t it be better to enjoy chess and get totally wasted at the same time? Well my answer would be NO, but if you actually said yes than the Shot Glass Chess set is made for you.
Basically the set is made out of glasses instead of the usual counters, these glasses are marked just like real chess-mans,so technically if your winning you get to drink the content of your opponents glass, now the content does have to be Vodka or any other alcoholic drink..but hey where’s the fun in that right?
The more you win, the more you have to drink. While getting drunk and losing concentration, you give more opportunities for your adversary to win.
So i guess this weekend will be a little more exciting for you and your pals.

BlueLithium aquired by Yahoo!
October 4, 2007
Yahoo has been given U.S. antitrust approval to buy BlueLithium, the Federal Trade Commission said on Wednesday. U.S. antitrust authorities decided the deal posed no antitrust concerns. The transaction was listed in a daily notice of such approvals issued by the FTC.
BlueLithium and Yahoo! share a common goal of providing both advertisers and publishers with high quality inventory and the essential targeting and analytical tools that are necessary to reach the right consumers at the right times. The addition of BlueLithium is the logical next step in creating the largest and most effective online ad network globally, which also includes inventory on Yahoo!’s owned and operated properties, the Yahoo! Publisher Network, and the Right Media Exchange. We believe that together Yahoo! and BlueLithium will help drive the next evolution of the online advertising industry.
