memepdx 020: Jive and Filtrbox, StepChange, AboutUs and Jyte, Beer and Blog, Lunch 2.0, Mercy Corps, and Google

How is it already Thursday? Oh. Well, if it is that means it’s time for another episode of memePDX.

This week, it’s the “acquisition edition.” Cami Kaos and I talk about Jive acquiring Filtrbox, StepChange getting acquired, AboutUs acquires Jyte from JanRain, Beer and Blog turns two, the first Lunch 2.0 of the year, Mercy Corps helping Haiti, Google’s approach to China, and Google Docs will allow uploading documents. And thank you so much to Joe Christensen at Blaze Streaming Media for loaning us a Tricaster so we could even do the show this week.

Let’s get to it.
