Open Source Clouds On The Rise
,----[ Quote ]
| Cloud computing has the potential to
| transform how government agencies tap into
| IT services, and open source is an
| underlying technology in several of the
| early government clouds that have been
| developed.
|
| We have yet to see the federal government
| issue a position on open source clouds, but
| it's clear that agencies have a green light
| to move ahead with open source and cloud
| computing. It's only a matter of time
| before these two trends come together in
| the form of open source clouds.

| source content management these days. Last
| week, I was fortunate enough to be asked to
| speak at a British Computer Society Open
| Source event but was rather surprised by
| the lack of agreement about Open Source
| Software (OSS).

Microsoft Should Kill Internet Explorer
,----[ Quote ]
| It's time for Microsoft to kill Internet
| Explorer. It has to be done quickly, before
| it's too late to rebound. The browser is
| bleeding market share in a way that a new
| version alone cannot stop. It's time for the
| company to rethink the browser and come at it
| from a fresh perspective. Microsoft needs a
| new browser, not a new version of an existing
| one.
