AOL Marries Huffington Post

The link below features video interview of Tim Armstrong of AOL and Arianna Huffington.  This is a great development for both organizations in my judgement.  Last week there was a lot of fuss and stir about the introduction of News Corp.’s new App for iPad — The Daily.  This is Rupert Murdoch with more of his genius in trying to corner all market that is news, or rather agenda and opinion pushing maybe.  It is too early to tell what will become of either Murdoch’s new approach to a so-called daily news for iPad or how the new acquisition of Huffington Post will position itself in the internet content mix.

Nevertheless, I am excited with anticipation that the AOL – Huffington Post mix will provide for some excellent content and make fabulous use of the social media market.  I can’t wait for their new iPad application that is sure to be coming soon.
