- Pinterest quietly profits off its users' links
The social networking field's buzziest startup is under fire this week for not being completely transparent with its users.img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/rss/money_technology/~4/esd8rT5nSOA" height="1" width="1"/
- HP: Same issues, different year
FORTUNE -- Last proxy season, HP achieved the dubious distinction of receiving a majority no vote from its shareholders on its executive compensation programs. According to a Council of Institutional Investors study, investors bestowed that distinction on less than 1.6% of companies, those deemed to be the worst pay offenders. Last year, too, HP's (HPQ) board nominations process (which removed four board members and added five more) came under fire because the process did not conform to stated board policy guidelines. In the run up to the proxy filing, HP provided varying explanations about the process, which had been headed by chair Ray Lane. As a result, proxy advisory firm Institutional Shareholder Services (ISS) recommended against the election of some HP board members. It is a new year and HP issued its new proxy last week. But the more things seem to change at the tech giant, the more they stay the same. HP sports a different CEO this year for the third year running (Meg Whitman replaced Leo Apotheker who replaced Mark Hurd who left in August 2010). HP, yet again, is proposing a new board slate to shareholders (with two new board members and four, including the former CEO, having exited). And the proxy this year reveals the same shortcomings as it did last year: misguided compensation and board nominations.img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/rss/money_technology/~4/a_hmXOLir88" height="1" width="1"/

- Why Honeywell is out to nix Nest

- Santorum's 'Google problem' isn't Google's problem
FORTUNE -- First, a clarification is in order. The fact that searching for "santorum" pulls up the profane, anti-Rick Santorum site SpreadingSantorum at the top of Google's search results is not an example of a "Google bomb," despite the widespread use of that term to describe that result.img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/rss/money_technology/~4/QzpMbnCmTPo" height="1" width="1"/
