CBS Snatches CNET
With a fresh banner outside CNET headquarters proclaiming it as one of the best places to work in the universe, ever--according to Business Week, anyway--CBS Corporation just made it a little better for the folks who work there. Well, hopefully. CBS decided to purchase the "premier destination for tech product reviews, tech news, daily videos, free downloads, and podcasts" for for $1.8 billion in cash.
CNET--famous for tech reviews, news, and more--has hosts a slew of sites such as ZDNet, GameSpot.com, TV.com, mp3.com, and News.com.

cbs also said they're going to open an office in silicon valley.
of all the broadcast networks, cbs, ironically, seems to be the only one that gets it.
heck check out the awesomeness that is Eye on Blogs at KPIX. You'd think one of those local papers that likes to talk about how it's a local paper with alternative views would have done this long ago, instead KPIX is kickin' ass.
PSA: mind the subtle spamming, folks.
Greg! You flatter me!
