href="http://money.cnn.com/2008/05/03/technology/microsoft_yahoo/index.htm?cnn=yes">Microsoft&#8217;s withdrawal of the offer for Yahoo</a>! I love being on the Radio.  I am lucky enough to be on CNN&#8217;s list as a <em>technologist</em> and total <em>geek</em> so CNN Radio sometimes calls me if they need a geek with a good voice. Who knows if they&#8217;ll use me or not. It is always a shot in the dark.  I do have the radio on, however &#8212; well, since I am in Berlin, I have <a

class="entry_content"> I am psyched about getting calls in Berlin to comment on American technology news.</span></p><p><strong> <span
class="entry_content">5AM CET</span> </strong><strong>UPDATE</strong><strong>:</strong>  <span
class="entry_content"> Egad, I am on rotation on CNN Radio &#8212; probably for the whole hour. </span><span
class="entry_content"> Wow, CNN Radio just ran another spot that made me sound like less of a retard, &#8220;Microsoft wants to buy Yahoo partially for the talent.&#8221; </span><span
class="entry_content"> OK, it is almost 5AM CET here in Berlin so I am going to stop vanity-listening to CNN Radio&#8230; signing off now&#8230; Ha ha &#8212; just now, they added another loop &#8212; how a Microsoft purchase of Yahoo! would result in a serious change of the culture of Microsoft, influenced by the strong culture of the properties of Yahoo!: Yahoo Mail, Flickr, etc&#8230; OK, I am tired now, I really most step away from the CNN Radio&#8230; </span></p><div
