Podcast
IT Needs a New Drug (57:10 minutes)
How does the term "cloud computing" relate to the rivers of
technological alphabet soup -- BMP, CEP, SOA, SaaS, WOA and so forth --
flowing into IT today? Perhaps calling it all "the cloud" is
oversimplifying things, and we need a new concept to propel us to the
next stage. What will be the next huge, overarching, all-encompassing
phase of enterprise technology? What's IT's new drug?

Today's Story Highlights

Beware of the Information Security Inertia Syndrome
We all know that some things are easier to do than others. In fact, what
separates an average manager from a great one is the ability to balance
decisions based on two almost totally unrelated sets of criteria: ease
of accomplishment on the one hand vs. value to the organization on the
other.

EnterpriseDB Smooths Way for Oracle App Migration
EnterpriseDB, which has commercialized the PostgreSQL open source
database, announced on Tuesday the fifth version of its Postgres Plus
Advanced Server. This latest version of EnterpriseDB's relational
database management system is designed to let users easily migrate more
Oracle applications in order to cut costs.

Survey: As Web Use Climbs, Family Time Slips
Whether it's around the dinner table or just in front of the TV, U.S.
families say they are spending less time together. The decline in family
time coincides with a rise in Internet use and the popularity of social
networks, though a new study stopped just short of assigning blame.

Social Decision-Making Site Carves Out New Niche in Search
Hunch, a new Web service open to the public Monday, is meant to help
people make decisions on hundreds of topics -- such as what kind of
camera to buy or where to go on vacation. Its founders say they expect
it to get better and better at pairing users with highly accurate custom
answers on thousands of topics, many of them user-contributed.

China Scrambles to Repair Crumbling Green Dam
For years, China's government has kept the country's Internet surfers on
a very short leash. Censors attempt to block any content considered
immoral, which could be anything from pornography to politically charged
blog posts. Its latest plan is to order the installation of filtering
software directly into all personal computers.

Samsung Takes Wraps Off New Omnia Smartphone Lineup
Samsung is set to unveil updates to its Omnia handset lineup, including
new OmniaPRO units and the OmniaII, at the CommunicAsia information and
communication technologies expo, being held in Singapore through
Wednesday. The OmniaPRO duo consists of two form factors: a standard
keypad/screen arrangement on the B7320 and a touchscreen design with
slide-out QWERTY keypad on the 7610.
