Podcast
Virtualization Reimagined (32:56 minutes)
One way of looking at an effective enterprise virtualization planning
strategy is to boil it down into three ingredients: the role
interconnections play in allowing physical servers to support multiple
virtual servers; the role and importance of CMDBs in terms of
deployment; and how outsourcing can maximize cost efficiencies.

Today's Story Highlights
Microsoft Forges 3 New Security Tools
Despite the best efforts of the computer security industry, hackers are
launching more attacks than ever. In turn, members of the industry are
working together to combat the threat. In line with this, Microsoft on
Monday unveiled some new tools at the Black Hat security conference in
Las Vegas, Nev. These include Microsoft Security Update Guide, Project
Quant, and Microsoft Office Visualization Tool.

Virgin's 'Eve' Wows Starry-Eyed Crowd
Hundreds of earthlings turned their faces to the sky Monday to see an
airplane built to launch a ship into space, watching the gleaming white
craft soar overhead. The twin-fuselage craft named "WhiteKnightTwo,"
looking like two planes connected at the wing tips, circled the runway
several times before touching down at the Experimental Aircraft
Association's Air Venture annual gathering.

Will iTunes 'Cocktail' Juice Up Album Sales?
Apple and the four major recording labels are working on launching in
the fall a music offering code-named "Cocktail" that aims to add value
to digital albums sold on the online iTunes Store, according to two
people with knowledge of the discussions. The new package will include
liner notes, artwork and potentially cellphone ringtones and music
videos in a unified software package.

Iranian Activists Keep Protest Going Online
The tweets still fly and the videos hit YouTube whenever protesters take
to the streets in Iran -- even as the Internet battle there turns more
grueling. Authorities appear to be intensifying their campaign to block
Web sites and chase down the opposition online, and the activists search
for new ways to elude them. Sites such as Facebook, Twitter and YouTube
remain blocked.

RIM Pitches the BlackBerry Curve Ball
Less than six weeks after announcing the BlackBerry 9630 Tour phone,
Research In Motion has released news on its latest product, the
BlackBerry Curve 8520. The smartphone will be carried by T-Mobile, and
it will be available on Aug. 5. Although it is aimed at the lower end of
the BlackBerry market, the 8520 has one important feature that might
become standard on RIM's smartphone line: an optical trackpad.

I Can Has 4chan? AT&T Lifts Mischief Site's Quarantine
Once again, the CEO of a major American company has met an untimely --
and fake -- demise on the pages of CNN's iReport Web site -- and once
again, the mischief-making Web site 4chan is suspected of being behind
it all. It's likely that excutive Randall Stephenson was selected as the
cybervandalism target because his company, AT&T, reportedly denied
access to 4chan over the weekend.
