...trouble making money. MySpace was supposed to be a big part of the revenue growth at News Corp. Wall St. thought Murdoch was a genius to buy it. Last year, News Corp had to admit that MySpace would not hit its revenue targets. That is usually not the hallmark of a property that is going to take over the Internet. Analysts believe that MySpace rival Facebook had revenue of $265 million last year. That is astonishingly low for a company that had 57 million unique visitors in the U.S. last month. And, Facebook also has a very large international user...

It shares her secrets, reveals her weaknesses and then steps back and allows her to look for that strength and power...

...Looking back, I realize fashionable lateness is the hallmark of a Harvard education, as my own studies attest. As I learned in a recent Harvard History lecture, the ninth president of Harvard College, Edward Holyoke (1689-1769), wrote Harvard Time into the bylaws of the Harvard Constitution after he noticed that plays and NBA games don’t begin until seven minutes after the hour.
