Ask Jeeves buys Bloglines
So I was wrong and I was right. Bloglines has been bought by a Search/Blog service. But not by Google as I predicted. Ask Jeeves seems to be company of choice. Russell has a heartfelt comment I am sure many of us Bloglines junkies agree with.
And now I'm wondering about the Bloglines-type service Google will be announcing. Soon. If one Google employee can create Orkut in his "spare time", I'm sure there has to be at least one employee working on "Googlelines". They would need to provide some killer features to attract people away from Bloglines. Stuff like integrating the search capabilities of Google with your personal Googlelines subscriptions.
