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
The Mainframe Bridge to the Cloud (35:00 minutes)
How do developments in mainframe technology and automation relate to
cloud computing? Cloud computing is in a very basic sense virtualizing
resources within the data center. As enterprises seek to gain data
center efficiency, they're looking at bringing in a measure of
virtualization, optimizing operations in ways similar to what mainframes
have done for years.

Today's Story Highlights

The Rise and Fall of Traditional Journalism, Part 4
Ask someone about the future of journalism, and it's likely that most
people will point to something like E-Ink or perhaps the Amazon Kindle
-- high-fidelity readers that use millions of embedded, magnetically
sensitive spheres which can show a black, white or in-between state to
create dynamically refreshing text content.

Natal Drops Jaws, Nvidia Shines, Pre Sets New Bar
Last week, Microsoft stole E3 with what may be the closest thing to a
"Star Trek" holodeck yet: Project Natal, which turns a gamer's whole
body into a controller. Computex was all about battles between
smartbooks and netbooks; Intel and AMD; and Windows and Android. Also
last week, the Palm Pre actually showed up on my doorstep, and I got a
first look. I wasn't disappointed.

TuneUp: An iTunes Librarian, Archivist and Concierge
Gabriel Adiv is a music lover. Like many music lovers who manage their
digital music in iTunes, he once bemoaned how labor-intensive that could
be. Unlike many music lovers, though, he decided to do something about
it. Adiv, with his sidekick Raza Zaidi, founded San Francisco-based
TuneUp Media in 2007, and a year later, their company introduced an
iTunes plug-in by the same name.

Ruminations on the Chrome-to-Linux 'Clusterf*ck'
It may be natural for Linux aficionados to get upset when someone
criticizes their favorite operating system, but that doesn't make it any
easier to bear. So when some less-than-flattering comments about Linux
were revealed recently -- made back in January by none other than Google
Chrome developer and ex-Firefox lead Ben Goodger -- many Linux bloggers
were dismayed.

The Slow and Spendy March to 3-D Movie Technology
To hear the folks in Hollywood talk about it, improved 3-D technology
and the quality films that are quickly lining up behind it represent
nothing short of a moviegoing revolution. Tell that to the folks who
still live hours from the nearest 3-D-equipped theater. For them, all
the extradimensional summer offerings and slick marketing campaigns
amount to nothing more than a big, frustrating tease.

Shrink That Link: Boosting Brevity With URL Shorteners
On the short-messaging service Twitter, space is at a premium: You've
got 140 characters to make your point, and you probably don't want to
waste half of it on a super-sized link to your latest YouTube obsession.
There's an increasingly popular quick fix: a free URL shortener. On one
of these Web sites, you can plug in a long Internet address, known as a
"URL," and it will assign you a much shorter one.

Google Chrome Sprouts Linux, Mac Versions
Google this week released early developer channel versions of its Chrome
browser for the Mac OS X and Linux platforms. Google emphasized that
both new versions are very much rough drafts intended for developers,
not consumers looking for a smooth browsing experience.

Apple Primed for iPhone Song-and-Dance Extravaganza
Photos around the Web have already revealed the banners gracing the
walls at the Moscone Convention Center in San Francisco. On them are the
letters "WWDC" and the legend "One Year Later, Light-Years Ahead." Both
the letters and the words are surrounded by a blizzard of Apple App
Store icons. "WWDC," of course, means next week's Worldwide Developers
Conference.
