Saint Louis of Toulouse Tops The Bluff City 61-54, In National Collegiate Athletic Association Tournament - with links of the day

It's the perfect time for the next links roundup. I've found some interesting links on National Collegiate Athletic Association Intel and Google.

OK, who's been discussing NCAA? It was www.huffingtonpost.com who wrote an article called Saint Louis Tops Memphis, 61-54, In NCAA Tournament.

What did they point out about NCAA? They said:
COLUMBUS, OH - MARCH 16: Kwamain Mitchell #3 of the Saint Louis Billikens celebrates with teammates Rob Loe #51 and Jordair Jett #5 after defeating the Memphis Tigers
and went on to say
COLUMBUS, Ohio -- Kwamain Mitchell looked pretty lucky when he banked in a 3-pointer to end the first half


Next we have a site that's been writing about Intel - Intel Dominated, AMD Gained in Chip Market in 2011: IDC.

They wrote:
However, Intel only showed a slight decline during a yearthat saw microprocessor revenues jump 13.2 percent, to more than $41 billion.That, in part, was helped by the fact that systems makers were willing to shellout more for the chips than they paid in 2010, according to Shane Rau, directorof PC semiconductor research at IDC
... sounds interesting ...
Last year, Intel held 80.1 percent of the worldwide unitmarket, a slight drop of 0.6 percent over 2010, according to IDC. AMDs marketshare stood at 19.7 percent, a bump of 0.7 percent. Via Technologies share was0.2 percent, a drop of 0.1 percent.
