Podcast
It's Time for IT to Look Inward (36:11 minutes)
In many enterprises, IT's role has traditionally been to help other
departments gain a better sense of their data, to help people and lines
of business integrate their systems, and to help optimize processes in
order to cut costs. In today's economy, though, IT needs to take a long
look in the mirror.

Today's Story Highlights
Where Are the Cybercops?
The month of June saw a host of Web-based attacks compromising
legitimate Web sites. One, dubbed "Nine Ball," compromised more than
40,000 Web sites. Another attack injected a malicious script into large
numbers of legitimate sites. What can be done about these attacks, and
who's policing the Web anyhow?

Is the Chrome OS an Apple Killer?
You betcha. OK, I'm just kidding -- but in most markets that are divided
like the PC market, where one vendor has 90 percent and the other 10
percent, a well-funded competitor would likely take out the 10 percent
vendor on the way to taking on the 90 percent vendor.

Reflections on a Chrome-Plated World
Some weeks, there's just no question what topics need to be covered here
on the Linux Blog Safari. Take last week, for example. On blog after
blog, our travels throughout the Linux blogosphere revealed countless
variations on the same, underlying theme: the announcement of Google's
Chrome operating system.

Scrivener Takes Wordsmiths Beyond Mere Processing
When writers initially discovered word processing, they beamed with
delight. Once the blush wore off the technology, though, that delight
morphed into distress. While office workers were perfectly content
"processing" words, scribblers writing words needed more from their
software. Moreover, they found their needs increasingly ignored by big
software houses who catered to the cubicle crowd.

Chinese Government No Match for the Web
The brawl between Han Chinese and Uighurs in southern China was scarcely
covered by state media, but accounts and photos spread quickly via the
Internet and became a spark that helped ignite deadly riots thousands of
miles away in the Uighur homeland. Even in tightly controlled China,
relatively unfettered commentaries and images circulating on Web sites
helped stir up tensions.

Omg! How Yahoo's Chirpy Celeb Site Ropes In Traffic
Think of the most popular brands in celebrity news, and you'll probably
come up with a small list that includes Entertainment Tonight, US Weekly
and People. Consider the most successful celebrity news destinations
online, and something else jumps to the top. For more than a year, one
site has attracted more eyeballs than any other in the realm of
celebrity gossip: Yahoo's Omg.

US Reputation for Scientific Achievement Flagging
U.S. science, medicine and technology were under the microscope in the
latest survey from the Pew Research Center for the People and the Press,
and one finding that's generating headlines is that only 17 percent of
the public participants held the belief that American scientific
achievements are the best in the world.
