Fourteen universities to study cloud computing with M NSF grant - Tech Products & Geek ... - 0 views

  • The program works with IBM and Google on their Cloud Computing University initiative, and is designed to look at the infrastructure requirements to make leading-edge cloud computing system
  • Whereas with the Web we could, from any point on the web, see pretty much everything else, with the Cloud we will not be able to know what’s taking place in the system, just as we cannot see today what exists inside of clouds. They are murky, dense objects that reveal almost no depth at all.
  • While everything on the outside appears to be as it was before, what’s happening on the inside of the new cloud-computing systems will be completely different. And I have, as of yet, to see a comprehensive analysis of how our privacy, our data security and our online lives will be affected by such a system.

Computer science major is cool again - 0 views

  • computer science majors are critical for the U.S. economy because their training provides them with computational thinking and problem solving skills that they can deploy in any industry.
  • When you compare the demand for jobs with the production of computer science undergrads, we're way short. It's clear there's an opportunity here.

Privacy groups to FTC: Investigate Gmail, Picasa - Ars Technica - 0 views

Paul Thurrott's SuperSite for Windows: Microsoft Strategic Update 2009 - 0 views

  • Microsoft is very clearly in the midst of an enormous push into consumer software solutions but its business sales remain its primary source of revenues. And from a mile-high view, all of Microsoft's IT-related businesses are profitable or highly profitable, with the exception of Windows Mobile, which Ballmer described as "somewhat unprofitable." Microsoft's consumer-oriented businesses, meanwhile, are doing notably poorly, almost across the board.
  • From a competition perspective, however, Windows has no real competition today beyond pirated copies of Windows. Even on netbooks, over 90 percent of installs are Windows. But Microsoft sees Linux being more competitive on the PC desktop going forward because it believes that Google will port its Android mobile OS to the PC.
  • People have always misconstrued the real market forces that are eating away at Windows. This has nothing to do with the Mac, which remains a niche player in yesterday's market. The future of computing is online, and as the box you use to get there becomes less important--or becomes a smart phone--Windows matters less. Netbooks, of course, are a real issue for Microsoft. It's strength in this market is key for the future. But it's a smaller future, from a revenues perspective. That's true across the board, and not unique for Windows.

  • Ballmer says that Microsoft will not build its own phone, suggesting that the company is ready to concede the consumer market to Apple. But the company is strongly positioned in the business world and should remain a RIM contender in that space.
  • That said, Microsoft derives far more revenues from its enterprise Office users that it does from consumers, so once again the company's dedication to IT is paying off.
  • To address the financial needs of emerging markets and cash-strapped smaller businesses, it will release a Foundation Edition of Windows Server 2008 R2 this year. Ballmer called it a netbook-type release for servers.
  • I feel that MOS and services like it will largely replace onsite server installs as the mass market enterprise offerings of the future. As such, Microsoft is poised to take its strength in the enterprise to the next generation.
  • Microsoft's living room strategy isn't just about the Xbox: It has Media Center (PC-based) and Media Room (set-top box software) today--neither of which has any serious traction, and, looking forward, what Ballmer described as "new appliance devices that we or others design that sit next to a TV." These new devices, he said, would bring online TV and movie services, common on the PC, to the television.
  • This will be difficult for the software giant, because its bread and butter products--Windows, Windows Server, and Office--are very much traditional software products. But it is taking the right steps to position itself for this change, with Windows Live on the desktop and MOS on the server.
  • Apple will eat Microsoft's mobile lunch this year and for the foreseeable future.
  • This year is going to be tough on everyone, including Microsoft. If you have opted for Microsoft's solutions, especially in business, it looks like you've made a good decision. The issue here, of course, is whether your existing infrastructure can be stretched for a few more years: Microsoft isn't the only company that will be riding out this storm
  •  
    Review of Microsoft Strategic Update 2009. Very interesting to get to know this giant's business. It's interesting to note that their revenue vs. market share are not always equivalent. Also the move to an online computing offering for businesses will help to retain it's dominance and profitability on such markets.

Google boss backs subsidized Linuxbooks - 0 views

  • Schmidt called netbooks the "next generation" of the low-cost machines produced by Nicholas Negroponte's One Laptop Per Child (OLPC) initiative. "Products today are not completely done. Things are missing.
  • Such devices could rule the world, Schmidt said, because cloud online apps are the future. "Cloud computing is one of those changes that are going to happen - regardless of whether or not companies in the ecosystem want it to," he said. "IT systems today are so slow in the way that they evolve...We now have an opportunity to build a whole new generation of applications that cycle much faster."
  • Just as predictably, Schmidt began his Morgan Stanley Q&A by insisting that Google's search monopoly could vanish at any moment. He pointed to a recent snafu where Google's search engine blocked access to the entire internet.

  • "We had a bug recently where we put a malware statement out for users, and in that time, Yahoo! searches gained very, very quickly," he said. "It looks like people will move very quickly from one search engine to another, for any number of reasons. We've looked at this very carefully."
  • "Eventually, it will make sense for operators and so forth to subsidize the use of netbooks so they can make services revenue and advertising revenue on the consumption. That's another new model that's coming."

    Google makes a smart move in expect to don't let Microsoft eat the whole pie of the upcoming netbook marketshare.

Technology Review: Doubts over India's $20 Laptop - 0 views

  • "There are too many components that cost $20 by themselves, never mind as a package."
    • Rudy Godoy
       
      En concreto los costos de algunas piezas y fabriación todavía no son tan bajos como para tener un equipo tan barato.
  • "it might be more plausible if we were talking about a 'fat keyboard' type of system that connects to a TV." After reading press coverage of the machine's specs, he adds that "it might be fine as an e-book reader, but I don't believe it will be a general-purpose machine."
  • "The technical data we have received to now suggests it is very inferior, but that does not matter at all,"

  • Sakshat has two gigabytes of random-access memory and wireless and fixed Ethernet connections, consumes just two watts of power, and will be available in retail outlets in India in six months. Generally, though, the announcement raised more questions than it answered about what had actually been achieved.
