Today Apple introduced the new wireless Magic Mouse, the first mouse to use Apple’s revolutionary Multi-Touch technology. Pioneered on iPhone, iPod touch and Mac notebook trackpads, Multi-Touch allows customers to navigate using intuitive finger gestures. Instead of mechanical buttons, scroll wheels or scroll balls, the entire top of the Magic Mouse is a seamless Multi-Touch surface. Magic Mouse comes standard with the new iMac and will be available as a Mac accessory at just $69.

The scroll button on the Mighty Mouse was a big issue for Mac users, it would stick all the time. It frustrated me so much I replaced it with a Microsoft Trackman which is a great mouse but an abomination to be attached to a Mac.

Back in 1999 Yahoo purchased GeoCities for $3.65 billion, but today it has sent out a “final notice” warning GeoCities users that they are pulling the plug on the 26th October.

Yahoo currently is shutting down a lot of services which it seems as though previous CEO’s purchased for no real reason. Current Yahoo CEO Carol Bartz seems to have her head switch on and is focusing on Yahoo’s key business areas:

* Homepage
* Mail
* Messenger
* Everything “mobile”
* Search
* Media experiences across sports, news, finance, entertainment

“Yahoo’s goal is to be at the center of people’s online lives, and these efforts all support that,” says a source.

What is Yahoo wanting to sell:

* Yahoo Games!
* Yahoo Hot Jobs
* Yahoo Small Business
* Zimbra
* Yahoo Shopping
* Delicious
