Podcast
The Many Layers of the Cloud (39:24 minutes)
The idea of cloud computing isn't a wholly new and suddenly emerging
idea. Rather, it's the latest in a progression of evolving ideas that
have built upon each other ever since the Internet began. To create an
adequate definition for the cloud, one would have to address its many
layers -- Software as a Service, Platform as a Service, and
Infrastructure as a Service, to name a few.

Today's Story Highlights

The Iran Lesson: Technology Can Set You Free
After two weeks of news from Iran, it wasn't a tweet from Tehran that
came to symbolize the horror in a potential revolution and the real-
time, cinema verite nature of its storytelling. True, it was a moment
brought to you by digital technology and the Internet, but it wasn't
Twitter that made the leader of the free world search for the right
words during this week's presidential press conference.

The Flawed Focus of Universal Broadband
This month, the Federal Communications Commission begins drafting a
national broadband plan as part of the 2009 stimulus package. This is
not the first government attempt at broadband ubiquity, so the FCC can
learn from past failures. The commissioners have less than eight months
to "ensure that all people of the United States have access to broadband
capability."

Shutters Close on iPhone Peep Show
The blogosphere began buzzing Thursday when "The Hottest Girls," the
Apple App Store's first iPhone app featuring nude women, suddenly became
unavailable hours after it had won Apple's approval. Initial speculation
was that Apple had finally decided to pull it for being too risqué.
However, the app's developer, who styles himself AllentheGeek, said the
app had simply been "sold out."

What I Need to Help Sell Linux
I believe with the right approach, Linux can take a great chunk of the
market; you just have to give the market what it needs and wants, while
allaying its fears. What's needed is a true Linux SMB Edition, targeting
specifically the needs and fears of those businesses that are using
Windows -- especially those that are still using Windows 2000, which is
going to lose support in 2010.

Apple's Tally, iSuppli's Breakdown, and Cupertino's Best-Kept Secrets
Apple doesn't talk much publicly, but when it does, it's usually
bragging about its awesome products or some special milestone it's
achieved. Monday was no different: Apple announced that it had sold more
than 1 million iPhone 3G S models over its launch weekend. To put this
in summer blockbuster movie opening perspective, the 3G S grossed at
least $199 million at the box office in three days.

Pros Cool, Bloggers Warm Toward Microsoft's Security Freeware
A beta version of Microsoft's free computer security software is now
out. Microsoft Security Essentials, or SE, aka "Morro," replaces
Redmond's OneCare subscription service. Features in SE are designed to
preempt such typical malware activities as stealing passwords or turning
a PC into a zombie bot.
