Various places are reporting that Ask Jeeves is to acquire the Bloglines feed search and reading service:
I can confirm that as with the News.com story we’ve been told Ask Jeeves will be making an announcement today and are preparing a story to release for it. Due to an embargo
on the news, we can’t discuss what we’ve been told unless the embargo broken by someone citing an official Ask Jeeves source.
The Napsterization post notes that the newly launched Ask Jeeves Blog
