Steve Ballmer's world tour: If it's Thursday, this must be Belgium
Sweatily peripatetic Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer has been on the run lately. He's been launching salvos in his takeover battle with Yahoo from the unlikeliest of locations: First Morocco; then Milan, Italy; now Louvain-La-Neuve, Belgium. There for a Microsoft developers' conference, captured in a video clip, Ballmer told reporters what Valleywag readers have long known: Yes, he has a Facebook profile. Unlike Bill Gates, he tries to keep up with it.
