»  Glenn Beck launched news and information site TheBlaze.com last night. With a “small scrappy staff,” the site, which some might compare to a conservative version of the Huffington Post, will be edited by Scott Baker, formerly of Breitbart TV and host of The B-Cast. [Mediaite]

»  A recent survey from Forrester Research says only one in 25 Americans have tried a location-based service. Some say privacy concerns are to blame, but the real problem could be that we’re just not quite technologically advanced enough. [VentureBeat]
