Last night at some event, Whoopi Goldberg told Page Six that Elisabeth receives more death threats than any other co-host on “The View.” She said, “Politically we could not be more opposite, but I respect her tremendously. Truth is, we could not have a dialogue without Elisabeth. It’s not that we have to agree, the important thing is that we have the conversation.”
Whoopi, please. You know 99% of those death threats comes from 4 bitches whose names rhyme with Shoopi, Roy, Herry and Darbara.

Google to Release Web Browser Tuesday; Should Microsoft Worry, or Mozilla?
In its latest bid to remain ascendant on the Internet, Google is about to release its own Web browser, long a key online battleground. It just announced its plans for the browser, dubbed Chrome, briefly on its official blog, so its ultimate intentions are not yet clear. But the Web browser more than ever has become the one indispensable product—even if it’s free—for anyone using the Internet. So it’s clear that Google is looking to firm up its ever-growing online presence—especially vs. Microsoft, maker of the dominant browser Internet Explorer. (Chrome was first reported by the blog Google Blogoscoped, which in an odd publicity tactic on Google’s part received a comic book in the mail outlining the product.)
This is a very interesting if long-rumored move, since it pits Google all the more directly against Microsoft in a battle for preeminence on the Web. Some folks such as Kara Swisher think it turns what she calls a Cold War between the two behemoths red-hot.

From Fashionista:
So here’s something that shouldn’t shock us, but somehow, totally did:
We were having a nice morning chat with a friend of ours that works at a Louis Vuitton boutique and she said:
“Oh god, I have to help re-tag all the items at the store tomorrow. So annoying.”
Why? Is there a sale?
“No, we’re just upping the prices.”
Why?
“We always do. Like twice a year, we up all the prices by 5%.”
Why?
“I have no idea. Because we can?”
And there you have it.
We didn’t elect them. We can’t throw them out. And they’re getting more powerful every day. Call them the superclass.
