Linda Watson is back in the news with e*Garden.com:

Filling out the ol' management team.

And WebslingerZ will grab tomorrow's headlines with their announcement
today, funding a Fellowship for a student to work at Metalab.

-------press release excerpt------------
"Having had the opportunity to work with
webslingerZ folks informally for some time,
it's a treat to have a formal connection with
such a progressive and well-run organization,"
said Paul Jones, Director of MetaLab at UNC.
"The webslingerZ Fellow will have the rare
opportunity of working in an experimental
research situation at MetaLab with connections
to the [relatively] real world of webslingerZ.
Everyone benefits, including the citizens of
North Carolina."
----------end excerpt-------------

Yet another example of corporate America co-opting academic institutions
toward their own selfish ends. ;-)
