Is This Steve Ballmer’s Secret Twitter Account? [Twitter]
Steve Ballmer recently revealed that he has a secret Twitter account which he uses to "blast out the scores of his kid's high school basketball games." We did a few quick searches and we think we may have found it. Based on a few old stories we know that Steve's son, Sam, attends Lakeside School in Seattle, so we searched for Twitter accounts announcing scores for that school's basketball games. There were some accounts which tweeted scores here and there, but there was one which was simply dedicated to one thing and one thing only: LakesideBball . This particular Twitter account doesn't appear to be affiliated with the school itself, so it would make sense that an athlete's proud parent was behind it.

Simple Scan Makes Linux Scanning Beginner-Friendly [Downloads]
Linux: The default image scanning app on most Linux destkops, XSane, has many, many buttons and sliders. When all you want to do is make a PDF from text, or scan a picture, Simple Scan is there for you. Robert Ancell, a developer for Ubuntu backer Canonical, is developing Simple Scan to drop into the next release of Ubuntu, Lucid Lynx, due out in April. Although his software isn't officially at a finished, 1.0 stage, it's already decent enough to be an attractive install for Ubuntu users. Load up your scanner, plug it into your system, fire up Simple Scan, switch between Photo and Text, and hit the Scan button.

Google Buys Online Image Editing Tool Picnik [Image Editing]
Google today announced that they've acquired Picnik , a great web-based image editor that we've highlighted in the past . They're not doing any significant changing up to the service just yet, but it's a safe bet they'll integrate some of its features into their photo-sharing app Picasa sometime in the near future.

Google Adds Flickr, Picasa Photos to Street View [Google Maps]
Google actually began incorporating geo-tagged photos into Street View last year, but they've now added a new photo-viewing interface for users moving through a Street View tour of well-captured areas. That allows you to peek at places that weren't accessible by Google's camera-topped cars, and also provides more angles on any area you're looking at. ReadWriteWeb frames the addition as a competitive move against Bing Maps' PhotoSynth powers , but it also seems like a fairly logical progression of Maps and Picasa integration. If you've found some neat stuff in Street View's photo views, feel free to link it up in the comments. [ Google LatLong via SearchEngineLand
