Last week, Oprah hosted Facebook wunderkind Mark Zuckerberg to discuss his constantly expanding social networking site. The site, originally created by Zuckerberg and a few Harvard classmates five years ago, now numbers over 175-million members with 500,000 more joining everyday. Prior to the sitdown, we said it would either be the most bizarre or the most boring interview since Tom Cruise, and ...

Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg is notoriously awkward and cagey in interviews and seems to disdain questions of a personal nature. Yet for some reason, the world's youngest billionaire will be making an appearance on 'Oprah' today and we have a feeling the queen of talk won't be asking a lot of questions about the technology underlying the new Facebook homepage. Unfortunately, Zuckerberg isn't ...

That Oprah, she's a wily one. She's constantly selling something or giving something away in an effort to tighten her grip on the throat of the world. Which is why we're a little confused that when she decided to endorse the Kindle, she neglected to make sure she had any content to sell on it. After the TV talk show queen threw her hefty cultural weight behind her "new favorite gadget" last ...

How long have you owned a cell phone? We're sure there are some of you out there who still go without, but for most, a celly of some sort has been a constant companion for at least a few years now. Not for Oprah Winfrey, though, the world's richest woman in entertainment. She may have her own YouTube channel, but she's actually never owned a phone until very recently, and took Tuesday ...

Been waiting patiently for the next-generation Kindle(s) to hit the market? Growing increasingly frustrated with the wait? Thanks to the Amazon e-reader becoming Oprah Winfrey's "new favorite, favorite thing in the world (can't you see the jubilation on her face?)," you might just have to finally pull the trigger on the existing iteration. As a special offer for 'Oprah Show' viewers (and by ...

After making sure that Obama will win the next election with her golden touch, Oprah appears to have made it her task to sell an overwhelming amount of Amazon Kindle e-book readers. Jeff Bezos, Amazon's founder, will be the guest on today's episode, in which Oprah will apparently talk about her new favorite gadget, and we don't think she's gonna be talking about the rabbit. A trailer on Amazon ...

Don't feel bad, we're not saying you missed out on a Kuro/XEL-1/what-have-you giveaway, gadget mavens. One thing is for sure, though -- Oprah understands that HD is about more than just sports and nature. Since rolling out her "OWN" network in conjunction with Discovery Health, the one-woman media empire has decided that she can't be outdone by the likes of Big Bird and is bringing her namesake ...

The eBay-owned VOIP service Skype is sponsoring a weekly segment on Oprah.com called 'A New Earth,' in which the talk show legend and Eckhart Tolle will answer questions about Tolle's new book, 'A New Earth: Get Ready To Be Awakened.' The 10 weekly segments will be aired live online and will focus on a different chapter from the book each week. Those with Skype accounts, reasonably powerful PCs ...

Oprah is launching her own YouTube channel. Anyone who tunes in to the queen of talk TV's program tomorrow, November 6, will get to see the official unveiling, along with guests (and YouTube co-founders) Chad Hurley and Steven Chen. As Oprah herself states on the preview site up now, the channel will feature show excerpts, backstage footage (some of it shot by Oprah herself on the Flip Video ...

Everybody loves a good celebrity blog. Now, from a team of bloggers comes a new site that just about every celeb lover or hater can appreciate openly. Called News Groper, the site is a collection of parody blogs written as if posted by celebrities. Impressively, there are over 50 of them ranging from Oprah Winfrey, who posts "My branded products shall be as plentiful as the stars in the sky," to ...

If you've been the recipient of an e-mail that claims to give you a free trip to 'The Oprah Winfrey Show,' don't click so fast. You might be looking at a scam. Admittedly it's a legal one and something that won't necessarily result in you losing your nest egg or all your personal info, but a scam nonetheless. The e-mail claims that if you complete a simple survey you'll be the recipient of a ...
