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

The Changing What, When, Where and How of Video
New technologies are changing the way we watch video. DVRs, VoD, and
online video are freeing us from the broadcast schedules that previously
dictated when we could watch programming. The latter two, combined with
an ever-growing number of channels, are dramatically increasing what we
can watch. The revolution in video habits is not yet complete, however.

Apple Tablet Rumors Take on New Life
A persistent rumor that Apple has a netbook device in the works has
gotten a boost from blog postings and other coverage citing a recent
report in the Mandarin-language China Times. Based on a translation of
the article to English, it appears the new product will be a tablet-
style computer.

Where Does Android Stop and Chrome Begin?
With Google targeting the netbook with both its Chrome and Android
operating systems, which way should developers jump? Should they pick
Chrome, the browser that will soon become an OS and is likely to face
strong competition from Microsoft and Apple? Or should they go with
Android, an OS that has so far been targeted mostly at smartphones, a
category poised for strong growth?

UFO-Hunting Hacker Seeks to Overturn Extradition Order
Prosecutors failed to consider the human rights argument against forcing
an autistic British man accused of hacking into U.S. military computers
to stand trial in the United States, a defense lawyer said Tuesday.
Attorney Edward Fitzgerald told the High Court that extraditing Gary
McKinnon carried "an avoidable and unnecessary risk of serious
psychological suffering."

Nokia Chases Social Crowd With New Surge Smartphone
Nokia and AT&T Wireless have introduced a low-priced smartphone that
plays up its social networking features and comes with a Qwerty
keyboard. It will run on AT&T's 3G network. The primary constituency of
the Nokia Surge is likely to be younger users who rely on their phones
to support most of their Internet-related activities.

Microsoft One-Ups Google With Office 2010
Not content with battling Google on the search front, Microsoft now
plans to offer a free, lightweight Web version of its Office
productivity suite. The Web app will come as part of the next major
release, Microsoft said, as it announced that Office 2010 was entering
an invite-only technical preview. The package is similar to Google's
free word processing, presentation and spreadsheet apps.
