Mojo Found
+ Marc Andreesen and his wife have donated $27.5M to Stanford Hospital's Emergency Care Center

+ Google is jumping on the developer bribes bandwagon by offering $10M reward to developers who who can make something for Android, its wireless platform. Salesforce.com and Facebook among others had announced similar funding schemes for developers.

+ Pandora gains partnership with AT&T for mobile music recommendation.

Mojo Lost
+ It's hard to fathom that Azoogle could fall any further but the last is that the online ad company has been ordered to pay the state of Florida $1M for its deceptive advertising practices.

+ New wave application builder Teqlo has had to shut down despite VC funding.
