Perplexity has offered Google an unsolicited $34.5 billion bid to acquire Chrome. Multiple investors have apparently agreed to finance the deal. Can't imagine Alphabet selling it. OpenAI expressed interest. Intriguing if you think about the Apple and Perplexity rumors. Could Apple soon own Chrome?!?

It’s hard to believe it’s been two years without you, Dad. Feels like both yesterday and forever ago at the same time. Love and miss you so very much ... yesterday, today and always. 🫶🫂💔🥹

Ready for the next season! 👍💯

Today is not only #CincoDeMayo and #RevengeOfThe5th, but the end of an era as @microsoft.com officially ends Skype and transitions it to Teams. Founded in 2003 by Niklas Zennström & Janus Friis, it was owned by eBay before MS. Thanks for the connectivity & memories.

The world mourns the passing of Pope Francis today. At his final Easter mass yesterday, he reinforced peace ... as well as the freedom of religion, thought and expression as it is not possible without these. He then wished all "Buona Pasqua" for the last time. RIP, sovereign pontiff. 🙏

Best #Oscars I've seen in years. So many can be highlighted. Great job, Conan! Favorite moments? @benstiller.redhour.com. Adam Sandler dressed like us watching at home. Robert De Niro: 🎤. When Harry (Billy) met Sally (Meg)! To the many we lost, thanks for the memories. 🙏

Watching #Severance? What did you think of the latest episode?
Really liked the flashback & background details on the history of Gemma & Mark. Intense; my mind is racing.
@benstiller.redhour.com: whoever produces those opening animations is amazingly talented!

Overall, yes ... in many situations, it has become a bridge between corporate (and even educational/community/startup) challenges and the ability to act on innovation to make it happen. However, as security continues to be a top concern and surface area risk with bad actors, still much TBD. #CIOChat
