Top 5 Reasons for Building Governance Into the Cloud (44:34 minutes)
Proper service governance is critical for businesses to modernize and
prosper in cloud computing operations. Major vendors are already
recognizing this need and reflecting it in their product offerings.
However, what specifically needs to be governed, and how? How can cloud
governance help organizations provide better management and better
modeling around processes?

Today's Story Highlights
In Clouds We Trust?
When the economic crisis hit last year, much of the government response
was targeted at shoring up public faith in what once had been perceived
as rock solid institutions. We all are now highly aware that these
foundations were not as sturdy as once believed, and as a result, many
are justifiably skeptical when being asked to trust the same
organizations with their now-diminished portfolios.

IT Poised for Year-End Rally
The free fall in the IT sector may be nearing an end, according to
Forrester. While the decline is not yet over, spending should begin to
improve as the year wears on, culminating in the beginning of a recovery
in the fourth quarter, according to a report by Forrester Vice President
and Principal Analyst Andrew Bartels.

Jobs Is Back, Apple's Still Standing, Life Goes On
After all the excitement about Steve Jobs' health, the market reaction
to news that the Apple CEO had returned to work appeared muted. Apple
shares closed at $142.43 at close of trading Tuesday, 46 cents up from
the previous day's close. They were actually down from Monday's open of
just under $144.
http://www.ecommercetimes.com/story/67477.html
Evolution, Revolution and Punctuated Equilibrium
Kudos to all those who participated in, organized or even attended the
Enterprise 2.0 conference in drizzly Boston last week. There is a lot to
write about. The big ideas that I took away include disruption and
evolution, ROI and a need to sharpen our focus. Here are a few thoughts
on a very good show.
http://www.ecommercetimes.com/story/67467.html
Pirate Bay Decides to Join the Navy
He may still have an eye patch, a peg leg and a funny hat, but is a
pirate still a pirate if he writes you a check before plundering your
ship? How long would Robin Hood keep his band of merry men intact if
they took from the rich -- and charged the poor a redistribution fee for
access to those riches?
http://www.ecommercetimes.com/story/67472.html
Grumbling Over Transparency Intensifies as Jobs Returns to Apple
Apple has confirmed that CEO Steve Jobs has officially gone back to
work, according to numerous media reports. Beyond saying that Jobs would
be working both at his office and from home, and that the company was
happy to have him back, Apple provided no details about its chief's
future involvement with the company.
http://www.ecommercetimes.com/story/67474.html
China Wobbles on Green Dam
The government of China says it will put off the July 1 deadline for
mandatory installation of the controversial Green Dam Youth Escort
Internet filtering software on new PCs, according to state-run news
agency Xinhua. Originally, the country's government had said it would
require vendors to include Green Dam with all computers sold in China.
http://www.ecommercetimes.com/story/67471.html
You, Palm Pre, Are No iPhone
Palm's new smartphone, the Pre, is off to a rolling good start and has
plenty of room to grow, but it isn't likely to emerge as a solo iPhone
killer, said ABI Research analyst Michael Morgan. His assessment comes
amid widely reported news accounts of a note from Charter Equity
Research estimating sales of the Pre approaching 400,000 in the month
since it launched on the Sprint network.

Today's Story Highlights
On the Road to 4G
Though most major U.S. wireless carriers today tout the ubiquity of
their third-generation, or 3G, wireless networks, they are
simultaneously planning for the future, pushing the development of
fourth-generation networks that they hope we'll all be using in a matter
of years.
http://www.technewsworld.com/story/67478.html
Is Dell Building an Android PDA?
Here's one of the many questions facing device makers targeting the mini
notebook and netbook markets: When business users or consumers want to
access the Web on the go, will they be willing to set aside a smartphone
or cellphone and instead log on using a next-generation PDA? Dell may be
wagering the answer is yes.
http://www.technewsworld.com/story/67473.html
Despite Danger, Iranian Protesters Won't Be Silenced
The Iranian protesters sneak their cellphones onto the streets and hit
record, frantically trying to evade being caught or beaten. The shaky,
grainy images are emailed to friends. Then they are uploaded to blogs,
YouTube or social networking sites -- offering the world some of the
only firsthand glimpses of tensions following disputed presidential
elections on June 12.
http://www.technewsworld.com/story/67483.html
NASA Maps Out Cheaper Route to the Moon
Like a car salesman pushing a luxury vehicle that the customer no longer
can afford, NASA has pulled out of its back pocket a deal for a cheaper
ride to the moon. It won't be as powerful, and its design is a little
dated. Think of it as a base-model Ford station wagon instead of a
tricked-out Cadillac Escalade.
http://www.technewsworld.com/story/67482.html
Firefox 3.5 Streaks Onto the Web
Mozilla has released Firefox 3.5, the latest edition of its open source
browser, one year after its release of Firefox 3. The update went
through four betas, incorporating JavaScript fine-tuning and other
improvements, resulting in the fastest version yet, according to
Mozilla.

YouTube Opens Digital J-School for Amateur Reporters
How do you conduct a great interview? For Katie Couric, it all starts
with being a gracious host. "I think the more comfortable you make
someone feel, the better interview you'll get," she says. "I know in
terms of body language I always try to be very warm and welcoming. It's
really critical to put someone at ease."
