As the year comes to an end soon, pictures Nike’s line-up up of new releases are reported with some models being on point and the rest being huge disappointments. The Nike 6.0 line has never been looked as a upper echelon line, but the new 6.0’s don’t help the 6.0’s current situations.

Nike uses some new mixtures of colors and pattern but nothing seems to stand out in the new 6.0’s. They look like touched up versions of the older models which isn’t a huge improvement. Check out all the new 6.0’s after the jump. Via Black Rainbow.

Much anticipation has been expected for the Nike Air Structure Retro’s that are going to be released next year. Nike will be releasing some of the original color-ways that were seen in the ’90s models and also adding new details like rain camo and different color-ways. Nike occasionally stays away from hideous mixtures of materials and color schemes and this is one of those rare occasions. Via Nicekicks.

Microsoft has acquired Seattle based social networking site WebFives.

WebFives was initially founded in 2004 by former Microsoft engineer Mike Toutonghi as Vizrea and offers social networking with a focus of mobile media, including video, music and photos. Users are provided with standard social networking profile pages complete with blogging, and have the option of accessing their sites via computer or via a WAP specific page.

According to The Seattle Times, Toutonghi told WebFives users that the service will stop at the end of the year because of the Microsoft acquisition, making the acquisition a technology buy as opposed to a community buy. Toutonghi went on to encourage users to sign up to MSN Spaces and/or Windows Live for their social networking experience.

Price of the acquisition was not disclosed.
