Message From Our Sponsor
When a high-end apparel manufacturer wanted an e-commerce
presence that was easy for merchandisers to manage,
they turned to ATG. Online sales have grown consistently;
more than tripling in their first year.
Read the ATG Case Study to see how.

Podcast
Mobile Development and Multiplicity Madness (34:30 minutes)
iPhone, BlackBerry, Symbian, WinMo, Android -- the world is awash in
smartphone platforms, and this fragmented landscape is a pain for
developers, who have to build an app four or five times in order to
reach all users, as well as enterprises, which have to pay for the work.
However, if the mobile browser world were to rally around WebKit, could
it be the answer to simplified mobile development?

Today's Story Highlights

Searching for the Ed Murrow of the Backpack Journalist Generation
Pop quiz: If you can remember the last time you saw a "backpack"
journalist -- a one-person band, an all-platform journalist, whatever
you want to call them -- filing a story on a network evening newscast or
a prime-time cable news broadcast, scream out that reporter's name. In
truth, you would be hard pressed to single out any next-generation
digital journalists for recognition.

Pre: iPhone Killer for a Day?
Speculation surrounding the next-generation iPhone has been simmering
all week, and with Apple's Worldwide Developers Conference set to hit
next week, it just might boil over. Lots of bloggers have been rounding
up the rumors, like a 3.2 megapixel camera or even video conferencing.
However, it's not an all-iPhone world, after all. Overall, Apple appears
to be raking in -- and spending -- plenty of cash.

White House Works the Web
President Obama in Egypt told Muslims he wants to engage them and their
countries. More than 5,000 miles away, U.S. administration officials
sent notes to supporters -- and critics -- via Twitter, Facebook and
text messages to reinforce the point. Obama's speech Thursday was an
illustration of the administration's aggressive strategy to work the Web
to enhance the White House's message.

Easing Airline Customers Into High-Tech Travel Habits
Welcome to the 21st century, passengers. Self-serve ticket kiosks and
other electronic screens and gadgets aren't exactly new at airports
around the world, but some travelers are hesitant -- maybe a little
scared -- about using them. They prefer the old-fashioned comfort of
face-to-face contact with an agent, even if waiting in line slows them
down.

Twitter Sued for Distress Caused by Impostor Tweets
St. Louis Cardinals manager Tony La Russa is suing the social networking
site Twitter, claiming an unauthorized page that used his name to make
light of drunken driving and two Cardinals pitchers who died damaged his
reputation and caused emotional distress. The suit filed last month in
the Superior Court of California in San Francisco seeks unspecified
damages.

Pre Gets 'B' in Early Review Tests
The media buzz around the Palm Pre is rising to deafening levels as the
countdown to the Pre's release on Saturday proceeds. Generally, early
reviewers like its design and ease of use. The device's short battery
life and small keyboard were concerns. However, the battery can be
swapped out easily, unlike the iPhone's, the Apple handset with which
the Pre is often compared.
