Man, all these old camera rumors are just seeping out of the woodwork ahead of Photokina next month — now it’s the Nikon D90 getting the zombie rumor treatment. At least we’re getting specs that duration around, and they’re not poor at all: 12 megapixels, habitable View…

Lenovo’s S10 netbook might not be too daring in the design division, but it’s still a pretty classy piece of kit — mix that in with the $399 starting price point and Lenovo’s marketing muscle, and we’d say that these first hands-on shots are just a prelude of things to come. To…

Comcast clearly has some deep pockets. When they're not hiring lawyers to do battle with the FCC over bandwidth issues, the company is apparently looking to invest in newsletter businesses.

Today the cable provider announced that it had beat out media conglomerate Viacom in a bid to buy DailyCandy. The final check came out to a whopping $125 million. While, according to Silicon Alley Insider, rumors of Comcast's interest in the company had surfaced earlier, bids were valued at around $75 million.

DailyCandy was founded in 2000 as a New York based daily newletter. It's since expanded to a number of major American cities, including Boston, Chicago, Dallas, Miami, Los Angeles, Philadelphia, San Francisco. In 2006, the company went international by adding London to the list.

Comcast is looking to build businesses that can be monetized on the Web, and DailyCandy "fits squarely" into that goal, according to the source. It is an "online brand that reaches a highly engaged and loyal audience."

DailyCandy is currently targeted for 13 cities, plus a national e-mail and a Web site with six different editorial focuses. Its 2.5 million subscribers are primarily females aged 18 to 40, a key demographic Comcast has been targeting.

Comcast's Interactive Media properties include the movie Web site Fandango, video Web site Fancast, and the company's main site, Comcast.net.

After the DailyCandy integration is complete, a visitor to Fandango who is logged in via ZIP code, for example, might receive DailyCandy recommendations for local ...
