    A few weeks ago, I was in Shanghai, at the Intel Developers Forum.

Intel was showing off a lot of interesting things at the conference. The MID, sadly, was not one of them.

  • Embracing the 'F' word

    The world changes fast and many enterprises large and small fail to see the next wave or see it and dismiss it.

  • Give me a ship, and a trading scheme to steer her by

    Watching the latest, hilarious stage in the Jimmy Kimmel-Matt Damon "feud" -- which racked up 2.5 million YouTube views in one day -- I was struck by a thought: who in the world is paying for all this bandwidth?
