Media Musings Blog Archive Is Yahoo destined to Yahoo announced the purchase of social blogging website, Tumblr, for US$1.1 billion, on Monday. The announcement has seen Tumblr users responding with posts tagged Yumblr, many expressing fear that Yahoo ownership will change the blogging site for the worse. The wording of Yahoo press release announcing the purchase is telling, with Yahoo CEO, Marissa Mayer, promising to screw it up the negative response from Tumblr came as no surprise, and why should it? Yahoo has a history of buying up promising online platforms, and running them into the ground. Flickr is the most well known of http://www.botshop.org these botched take overs. The photo sharing site future looked promising when it was purchased by Yahoo in 2005. Yahoo had the money needed to take the already popular site to new heights, but that not what happened. Under Yahoo ownership, Flickr missed the opportunity to become the social media giant it had the potential to be. It even lost it's status as the first choice for photo sharing, with Facebook and Instagram taking over the role. And Flickr wasn the only company that failed to reach its potential when Yahoo took the reigns. Social bookmarking site, Delicious, and social calendar, Upcoming, were two other ventures that suffered under Yahoo ownership. I don know about you, but I never even heard of Delicious (which was sold by Yahoo in 2011) and Upcoming was shut down last month. Given the massive differences in target audience and approach between Yahoo, a family friendly brand, and Tumblr, known for its explicit suitable for work content, it understandable that there is concern over how they will operate under the same ownership. Yahoo has assured Tumblr users that the site will remain an independently operated business, and Tumblr CEO, David Karp, signed his post announcing the company had been purchased with a far from family friendly yeah If that anything to go by, it looks like the two will remain quite seperate, continuing appeal to their respective audiences for now. But Yahoo purchased Tumblr in the hope that it would help the brand to appeal to a younger generation. If Tumblr is to revitalise Yahoo, users will need to know that it is a part of Yahoo. With that motive in mind, it seems unlikely they will remain seperate forever. The future of Tumblr remains uncertain, but the Tumblr users have spoken and one thing seems clear: turning purple and adding advertisements won see the social blogging site flourish.

Waiting until the end of the trial before we decide kate spade new york handbags on whom that suspicion ought to rest, let us now hear new balance mx623 the evidence by which the Duparcs and their adherents proceeded to nike dunk mid sb justify their conspiracy against the liberty and the life of a louis vuitton outlet louis vuitton outlet friendless girl. Having secured Marie in solitary confinement, and having thus left coupons new balance the house and all that it contained for a whole night kate spade great gatsby clutch at the free disposal of the Duparcs, the Procurator Revel bethought barbour hunting jacket himself, the morning after the arrest of his prisoner, of the chanel bags factory outlet necessity of proceeding with something like official regularity. He accordingly issued nike shox mens shoes his requisition to the Lieutenant Criminel to accompany him to the house kate spade returns of Monsieur Duparc, attended by the medical officers and the clerk, speedy 35 louis vuitton to inquire into the circumstances under which the suspected death by kate spade small karen poisoning of Monsieur De Beaulieu had taken place. Marie had been all white nike shox imprisoned on the evening of the seventh of August, and this michael kors outlet return policy requisition is dated on the morning of the eighth. The document outlet prada bags betrays one remarkable informality. It mentions the death of Monsieur De christian louis vuitton Beaulieu; but is absolutely silent on the subject of the alleged kate spade new york outlet stores poisoning of seven persons at dinner the next day. And yet louis vuitton damier it was this latter circumstance only which first directed suspicion against authentic chanel purses cheap Marie, and which induced Friley to lodge the information against her buy authentic nba jerseys on which the Procurator was now acting. Probably Monsieur Revel s legal shop chanel online acumen convinced him, at the outset, that the story of the moncler size poisoned dinner was too weak to be relied on. The officers of christian louboutin wholesale china the law, accompanied by the doctors, proceeded to the house of authentic chanel outlet the Duparcs on the eighth of August. After viewing the body gucci women shoes of Monsieur De Beaulieu, the medical men were directed to open kate spade clarice and examine it. They reported the discovery in the stomach of michael kors watches reviews a reddish, brick colored liquid, somewhat resembling the lees of wine. The louis vuitton coin purse keychain mucous membrane was detached in some places, and its internal surface louis vuitton palermo pm was corroded. On examining the reddish liquid, they found it to louis vuitton kanye west contain a crystallized sediment, which, on analyzation, proved to be arsenic. white air max 90 Upon this, the doctors delivered it as their opinion that Monsieur barbour raincoat De Beaulieu had been poisoned, and that poison had been the kate spade shoes discount cause of his death. The event having taken this serious turn, the gucci mens belts first duty of the Lieutenant Criminel (according to the French law) was spiked christian louboutin heels to send for the servant on whom suspicion rested, to question louis vuitton overnight bag her, and to confront her with the Duparcs. He did nothing chanel soap of the kind; he made no inquiry after the servant (being barbour jackets women sale probably unwilling to expose his colleague, the Procurator, who had illegally moncler jacket uk arrested and illegally imprisoned her); he never examined the kitchen utensils cheap louis vuitton shoes for men which the Commissary had locked up; he never opened the servant s gucci sale 2011 cupboard with the key that had been taken from her when new balance 520 she was searched in prison. All he did was to reduce chanel 2.55 bag price the report of the doctors to writing, and to return to kate spade evening bags his office with his posse comitatus at his heels. It was necessary michael kors wallets for women to summon the witnesses and examine them. But the Procurator Revel new balance ml574 now conveniently remembered the story of the poisoned dinner, and he jordan nike air sent the Lieutenant Criminel to examine the Duparcs and their friends at gucci handbags gucci the private residence of the family, in consideration of the sickly nike air max premium condition of the eaters of the adulterated meal. It may be chanel handbags cheap as well to observe, here as elsewhere, that these highly indulged michael kors cheap outlet personages had none of them been sufficiently inconvenienced even to go is the michael kors online outlet real to bed, or in any way to alter their ordinary habits. On green barbour jacket the afternoon of the eighth, the Lieutenant Criminel betook himself to the nike air jordan retro shoes house of Monsieur Duparc, to collect evidence touching the death by nba all star jerseys poison of Monsieur De Beaulieu. The first witness called was Monsieur moncler sweaters men Duparc. This gentleman, it will be remembered, was away from home on chanel eye glasses Monday, the sixth, when Monsieur De Beaulieu died, and only returned, joe new balance coupon code at the summons of his eldest son, at half past eleven on louis vuitton bags cheap online the forenoon of the seventh. He had nothing to depose connected new balance factory coupons with the death of his father in law, or with the events which christian louboutin pink pumps might have taken place in the house on the night of mens moncler boots the sixth and the morning of the seventh. On the other vintage louis vuitton trunk hand, he had a great deal to say about the state http://www.srb01.uk christian louboutin oxfords of his own stomach after the dinner of the seventh michael kors outlet collection a species of information not calculated to throw much light on barbour flyweight cavalry the subject of inquiry, which was the poisoning of Monsieur De mens michael kors watch Beaulieu. The old lady, Madame De Beaulieu, was next examined, She could new balance 525 give no evidence of the slightest importance touching the matter in prices for chanel purses hand; but, like Monsieur Duparc, she had something to say on all air jordan shoes the topic of the poisoned dinner. Madame Duparc followed on the list michael kors hamilton handbag of witnesses. The report of her examination so thoroughly had christian louboutin second hand she recovered from the effects of the dinner of the seventh real louis vuitton handbags outlet ran to a prodigious length. Five sixths of it related entirely michael kors women watches on sale to her own sensations and suspicions, and the sensations and suspicions the new balance store of her relatives and friends, after they had risen from the barbour red jacket table. As to the point at issue, the point which affected barbour classic durham jacket the liberty, and perhaps the life, of her unfortunate servant, she lebron nike zoom had so little to say that her testimony may be repeated nba jerseys cheap authentic here in her own words: The witness (Madame Duparc) deposed, that after michael kors duffle bag Marie had helped Monsieur De Beaulieu to get up, she (Marie) wholesale gucci shoes hastened out for the milk, and, on her return with it, prada bags sale prepared the hasty pudding, took it herself off the fire, and herself kate spde poured it out into the plate then left the kitchen chanel eyewear to accompany Madame De Beaulieu to mass. Four or five minutes nike air max cb 94 after Monsieur De Beaulieu had eaten the hasty pudding, he was seized affordable michael kors purses with violent illness. Short as it is, this statement contains several distinct michael kors online outlet store reviews suppressions of the truth. First, Madame Duparc is wrong in stating that leopard christian louboutin Marie fetched the milk, for it was the milk woman who brought gucci coin purse it to the house. Secondly, Madame Duparc conceals the fact that prada purses handbags she handed the flour to the servant to make the hasty pudding. cheap new balance 574 Thirdly, Madame Duparc does not mention that she held the plate louis vuitton mens wallet for the pudding to be poured into, and took it to christian louboutin saks her father. Fourthly, and most important of all, Madame Duparc altogether vacaville gucci outlet omits to state that she sprinkled salt, with her own hands, gucci boat shoes over the hasty pudding although she had expressly informed her servant, nike air jordan xx a day or two before, that salt was never to be gucci fashion mixed with it. At a subsequent stage of the proceedings she nike dunk low black white was charged with having salted the hasty pudding herself, and she could christian louboutin prive not, and did not, deny it. The examination of Madame Duparc ended barbour clothing sale the business of the day of the eighth. The next morning kate spade manuela the Lieutenant Criminel, as politely attentive as before, returned to resume his nike dunk low sb inquiry at the private residence of Monsieur Duparc. The first witness examined kate spade wedding dress on the second day was Mademoiselle Duparc. She carefully followed her louis vuitton neverfull tote mother s lead saying as little as possible about the preparation original chanel bags outlet of the hasty pudding on the morning of Monday, and as much christian louboutin clutch as possible about the pain suffered by everybody after the dinner christian louboutin pigalle shoes of Tuesday. Madame Beauguillot, the next witness, added her testimony, as chanel classic bag to the state of her own digestive organs, after partaking of barbour jacket for sale the same meal speaking at such prodigious length that the gucci outlet store cabazon poison would appear, in her case, to have produced its principal chanel malvar effect (and that of a stimulating kind) on her tongue. Her chanel bowling bag son, Monsieur De Beauguillot, was next examined, quite uselessly in relation chanel sunglasses outlet to the death by poison, which was the object of inquiry. chanel purfume The last witness was Madame Duparc s younger son the same buy barbour jacket who had complained of feeling a gritty substance between his teeth gucci belt cheap at dinner. In one important respect, his evidence flatly contradicted his coc chanel mother s. Madame Duparc had adroitly connected Monsieur De Beaulieu s illness with prada online store usa the hasty pudding, by describing the old man as having been taken michael kors thong sandals ill four or five minutes after eating it. Young Duparc, on gucci outlet md the contrary, declared that his grandfather first felt ill at nine free nike golf clubs o clock exactly two hours after he had partaken of his morning livermore prada outlet meal.
