<p>From Daily &#8216;Dog: &#8220;The new website, called <strong>Wallop</strong>, is bound to make a splash in the competitive pool of friend-collecting websites. Microsoft’s tagline for the site, which will offer a wide range of tools and features that will hopefully set it apart from similar pages, is &#8216;the exclusive social experience.&#8217;&#8221;</p>
<p>My Two Cents: I have seen a couple of articles mention Google and how it is playing catchup, well, I think it&#8217;s safe to say that Microsoft is playing the same game (read: Zune &amp; Wallop). Hopefully for Bill Gates and company it isn&#8217;t a day late and a dolar short. We&#8217;ll see how Wallop fares and the Zune in November&#8211;which, by the way, it was announced this morning will be priced almost $1 more than the equivalent iPod.(Read the Reuters article <a href="http://www.cnn.com/2006/TECH/ptech/09/28/microsoft.zune.reut/index.html">here</a> on CNN.com)</p>
