by ngdimola@aol.com on Nov 9, 2010

I was with a customer in Brooklyn. She had just purchased this beautiful, rustic home, dating to 1839–almost 200 years old! The two-decade-old wall was all original plaster, and the 10-inch plank floors had detailed moldings from the 19th century. The customer wanted to renovate the entire place, but keep alive as much of the intricate, historical details as possible.

She was baffled by my passion for this old vintage stuff, but I had to explain to her that I am a young guy in the wrong era. After a complete walk-through of the house, looking at what she wanted to remove and demolish, she paused, looking at me like she had forgotten to show me the most important part of the house. “Want to see something cool in the yard,” she asked, already halfway out the door.

The fall of Bebo: what it says about social networks and AOLs strategy

by bharatbookbureau

In April 2010, AOL announced that it is set to sell or shut down Bebo, the social network site aimed at children and teenagers that it acquired for $850 million in March 2008.
