The European Space Agency wants volunteers to take the 520-day trip to Mars. Well ok, a simulated version of the red planet voyage but you would get to go to Moscow and pretend you were on a spaceship.
Since the great real estate bubble burst, many people have been keeping a close eye on the sinking valuation of their homes and hoping for an uptick. Others are searching for the best neighborhoods and homes at bargain prices. Nearly everyone has become a trend watcher.
Nobody likes to file for reorganization under the bankruptcy laws, but it happens. And while it's usually bad news for a company's stockholders, in the area we're talking about Chapter 11 has one major advantage -- the ability of the bankrupt company to 'reject' executory contracts, a category that includes ongoing IT and network service agreements.

China wants to be like India...a major destination for services outsourcing. A Shanghai paper recently ran a story on the 25th anniversary of Infosys, the first global outsourcing company in India. This sort of "legend" story telling is a clear sign of respect and flattery for what has been accomplished in the Indian economy. But could China's politics get in the way of its outsourcing aspirations?
The notorious malware known as the Conficker worm still infects computers, a sort of wild horse with no rider, but investigators appear no closer to finding its creator.
Microsoft introduces a way for users to protect some of their files and corporate America goes crazy - crazy mad. In an era when laptops full of corporate and personal secrets are stolen on a daily basis, you would think this sort of security offering would be welcomed, but that seems not to be the case. It took Microsoft only a week to get the message and remove the application from its download area.

Is there an independent company that provides ratings of training providers – a sort of Consumer Reports of the IT training industry? That was a question that I recently received from a reader who is an IT manager with a construction company. I thought it would be an easy enough question to answer but after asking a number of training providers and a recruiter, I couldn’t pinpoint a company that provided just that. Even the reader couldn’t find anything after a couple of hours searching the Web.
Have you ever wished for the ability to press a rewind button to back up to a specific point in time to review exactly what was happening on your network at that moment? Maybe there was some sort of major drag on performance around 2:15 last Tuesday afternoon, and you need to diagnose precisely what caused it. Or perhaps you suspect an employee of improperly sending proprietary data outside the firewall a month ago, and you need to confirm your suspicions by viewing the exact network traffic that user gene
We have spoken at length in this forum about the challenges of managing data centers, both as technological ecosystems and as physical entities, in the face of explosive growth in storage and computational demands, heat generation, and power consumption. But does it have to be like that? Does the data center have to experience change of this sort? If not, what are the factors you can change to help avoid the changes, rather than simply coping with them better?
If you are running a Windows computer and not using some sort of anti-virus package then you are likely not the one really running your computer. It is very likely that some hacker halfway around the world can do anything he wants to with “your” computer. In a Windows environment running anti-virus to protect the computer from worms and viruses is what is euphemistically called “a required option.” So what do you do when the very tool that is supposed to protect you from attacks turns out to be ena
The U.S. government believes it can freely search the contents of your laptop or other mobile device upon entering the United States, since it views this practice as conceptually identical to searching your luggage at the airport, which it can do without any sort of probable cause. A federal appeals court agrees with the government’s position and few judges seem to disagree with the practice. The good that comes from this practice is that child pornographers can be thwarted, but the quite serious downsid
If you're a nice person, you probably think that being nice works to your advantage in the office. After all, how could it be any other way? Genuinely nice people are well liked. They're generally easy to work with. They care about others and tend to have good values. In a fair and just world, that sort of behavior should be rewarded. Right?
Last week Brocade announced its intent to acquire McData, an event that is interesting on a number of levels. The stated rationale, that this will create a "broader range of solutions and services that protect and extend customers' existing investments in [storage-area networking] infrastructure," and that it will "accelerate the pace of innovation to deliver next generation solutions to address customers' information management challenges" is of course an industry-standard platitude for this sort of occur
Didn't we once look to giants such as Cisco and Juniper for their insights about how the industry was going to develop? Their rear-view mirrors have taken over for their windshields, vision-wise. Are these two companies so dumbed down by the aftermath of the bubble that they have no idea what's happening in an industry they've largely shaped? Or is it that they don't want to do strategy anymore?
Recently, there's been some good news - sort of. According to the latest data, the loss of IT jobs has slowed to the lowest level since 2000. Losing less isn't the same as gaining more, but it's at least movement in the right direction, and it makes one wonder what's behind it.
