Dropbox, the cloud storage startup, has hired Google lawyer Ramsey Homsany.

Biz Stone, Evan Williams and Jason Goldman, men responsible for Twitter, plan to re-start their former company The Obvious Corporation. Obvious was a company they formed prior to Twitter’s fame, and abandoned in favor of focusing on Twitter. The reborn Obvious will, in Stone’s words, “help people work together to improve the world.” What that means, exactly, is unclear, but it sounds like it will be a source of innovative products. All three have stepped back or resigned from Twitter to return focus to The Obvious Corporation. [TechCrunch]

Myspace is currently subject to a lot of rumors, from layoffs to sale, and should be done with their acquisition deal by Thursday. All Things D reports that Specific Media and Golden Gate Capital are the frontrunners in the deal, both with plans to focus on Myspace’s music services. Before the deal finalizes Myspace will likely cut its staff—some say by 50%, maybe more.

Google Goggles, the smartphone app that recognizes and searches items when you photograph them with your phone, is now teamed with the Getty Museum in Los Angeles. Visitors to the museum can now use Google Goggles to learn more about the art in the museum, a walking tour provided every time a visitor uses Google Goggles on a piece of artwork. The app provides audio and text of commentary, which the Google Blog says is from “artists, curators, conservators or the works of art themselves.” While hearing the characters in a painting talk isn’t everyone’s idea of a museum trip, the artist and curator commentaries will surely be a popular option.

Startup service MoviePass allows subscribers to see unlimited movies in local theaters for a $50-a-month fee. Once subscribed, moviegoers can use the app to search for films and walk straight into the theatre. Wired reports that an extra $3 charge is added for 3D or Imax movies, but the rest of the unlimited subscription is truly unlimited–as many movies as you like. The company is also working on a “limited pass” that would let moviegoers see four films a month for $30.

Monster has developed an app called BeKnown that turns Facebook into a professional networking tool. The app is scheduled for release on Monday, and will bring Monster’s job search functions to Facebook’s social networking capabilities. The app is a challenge to other companies like LinkedIn, because BeKnown allows users to run their professional persona through Facebook, a website they already use. The app is also different because, as Mashable reports, users can follow companies and collect badges for goals like college graduations.

The Olympic Committee has produced new rules for the distribution of information from the inhabitants of the Olympic Village—yes, Olympic athletes are allowed to tweet during the events. Reuters reports that participants in London’s 2012 Olympics are allowed to tweet as long as they aren’t vulgar, or doing so for commercial purposes. The IOC even warns that obscene social media could get athletes kicked out of the games. Athletes are asked to restrict their tweeting and blogging to “first-person, diary-type formats.”
