You can now tune in to Pandora to get your laughs.
The internet radio service is adding 10000 comedy clips for more than 700 comedians into its library.

long time request from users.
Similar to listening to music, comedy bits will be spliced in with audio adds.
Google and Facebook are flirting with buying Skype.
Business insider says Facebook execs are considering a buyout or joint venture.
This would give Facebook a fully fledged video product to build into their service.

Barnes and Noble is planning to release a new E-reader at the end of the month.
The Wall Street journal got wind of an SEC filing speculating that the new device may be a tablet E-Reader hybrid possibly running Honeycomb Android 3.0.

priced E-Ink reader and that the Nook Color won't get a refresh until the fall.
We will know in a few weeks.
You may not have to plug in your iPhone to update any longer.
That's the latest rumor from 9to5 Mac.
They're reporting that Apple is working with Verizon to offer over the year updates similar to Android phones.
No word on if this is happening with At&T.

Remember, we don't have a show on Fridays anymore, so we will see you on Monday.
I'm Mark Licea with cnet.com and you've just been loaded.
