Around the web this week

Not much time in the last two weeks. The good news is that Silentale will be moving in a new office next week!

In the mean time, here is what seemed interesting around the web since my last post.

• Google launches Google Health - Disclaimer: Your privacy is only an illusion. ReadWriteWeb take on it.
• Gizmodo have a report saying that the next generation’s iPhone 3G will be launched on June 9th and will be available immediately.
• Twitter may have closed its $15m round of financing. Will it prevent future outages?
• The team at the next web has started to release videos filmed during this March show. First on the list, Alex Rossi from TheFunded.com.
• “Your Fired” comes to High Tech Stat-ups. Reality TV will take 10 companies for 3 months and will put them through a series of challenges. Check it here.
• Facebook reveals its upcoming site redesign.
• And an excellent overview by RWW of what needs a killer web service: search, aggregation and conversations.

Not a news item but a design discovery: Fractal 23, A square box with 23 drawers, by Takeshi Miyakawa.
