Identity mix-ups and the potential harm to your reputation | Network World

Pamela Dingle, from Calgary’s Nulli Secundis, is known as one of the world’s foremost advocates of Microsoft CardSpace as well as being a driving force behind integration of the major user-centric identity systems (CardSpace, OpenID, the Bandit Project, etc.) through her “PamelaWare” alter ego. In her spare time, she blogs on identity issues and other aspects of life on a blog d믭 “Adventures of an Eternal Optimist.” Her optimism was challenged recently.

WAN vendors jump on the open source bandwagon | Network World

The idea of open source based products penetrating the WAN is not an entirely new phenomenon. For example, companies have a lengthy history of using freeware network management tools such as MRTG (Multi Router Traffic Grapher), Qcheck and TCPDUMP. What is new about open source, in addition to the fact that the user gets access to the code, is that vendors are now introducing open source based PBXs and routers.

Setting the record straight on Sxip and patents | Network World

Ubuntu update glitch gives users’ fingers/keyboards a workout | Network World

Linux users who applied Ubuntu's most recent software upgrade were given a reminder of the early days of Linux; a flaw in the code rendered the graphical user interfaces on the machines useless, forcing users to navigate directories and run programs through - gulp! - the command line interface (CLI) of Linux.

End user service management grows in importance | Network World

In my May 2007 article Use Client Service Intelligence to Get Proactive, I wrote about a relatively new category of IT management tool that measures the performance of end user computing assets (i.e, desktops and notebooks) from the end user’s perspective. Tools in this category help you understand how people use their computers (“working patterns”), and how well the computers perform their required tasks. Knowing this kind of information can help reduce your support costs, help you plan and execute

Best (free) mobile Twitter apps | Network World

"What are you doing?" That's the central question behind Twitter, the uber-popular microblogging/social networking service--and, at this point, cultural phenomenon. In 140-characters or less--brevity's a virtue, just ask Jack Dorsey, Twitter's cofounder and CEO--users enter status messages about what they're doing, reading, researching, pondering, whatever; and others comment or post their own "tweets." If it sounds simple, or basic, that's because it is.

IDC: TEAMS submarine cable to land first in East Africa | Network World

Server shipment increases but virtualization continues to slow new server sales | Network World

IDC announced its server market share figures last week. Server factory revenue grew almost 1% to $12.3 billion in the second quarter of 2006.

My beliefs about security | Network World

I'm a big fan of Tom Peters. Right - the Tom Peters who wrote In Search of Excellence and The Brand You. When Tom turned 60, he packaged up a list of 60 things he believes in in a book called Sixty. Many of the things are simple but frequently forgotten. It's useful to go back through these ideas every so often to remind ourselves what we should be focusing on. Because you are still getting a feel for this column, I thought I would discuss things I believe about security.

The largest mobile operators in China, Japan, and Korea have agreed on common standards for touch-card technology, clearing the way for travellers across East Asia to user their phones for travel and payments.

Caller ID spoofing: Time to check your defenses | Network World

For years, we've used caller ID as an example of a "secure" identification, especially in comparison to the more "open" capabilities of IP and SMTP. For instance, it's common knowledge that one may set one's own IP address (even though it may or may not work in your network), and it's beyond "Simple" to spoof the "from" field in Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP).

Sprint still struggling to make Nextel merger work | Network World

The honeymoon period is clearly over for Sprint and Nextel. Their $36 billion marriage at the end of 2005 was supposed to result in a wireless powerhouse with strong average revenue per user (ARPU). But Sprint Nextel Monday said its earnings for 2007 will fall below earlier expectation; its revenue will be flat and that it will lay off 5,000 employees to cut costs.

Who should control the ‘Net? | Network World

If Internet governance isn't handed over to a world body such as the United Nations, it could well be taken away by simple configuration changes (such as establishing alternate DNS root servers), which could cause huge problems for U.S. businesses and consumers.

DePaul University opts for a multivendor IP telephony system | Network World

About two years ago, DePaul University’s IT staff began plans to replace its Nortel 81 and Meridian Mail PBX communications systems that serve some 4,500 users at the university. Like many conversions, the shift to IP telephony (IPT) was designed to take several years and was going to be phased in by user-group. The new messaging system needed to provide interworking between the new IPT system and the legacy TDM PBX and it needed to provide full integration with Microsoft Exchange and Active Directory.?

A baudy topic: Bits, baud, coding and politics | Network World

Steve recently made a shift from "residential DSL" to "business DSL" service, and that discussion will be followed up in another newsletter. But for today, we're taking a step back into the history of telecommunications. Why? Because, being a typical "bleeding edge" adopter of new technology, Steve had to decommission his old DSL modem. And this happened to be a model that supported a user input of either Ethernet or ATM-25.

Borrowing a PC? Put Linux on it, via a USB drive | Network World

Have you ever had to use someone else's PC at work - either to complete a quick task, or as a substitute machine for a short period of time? The experience is never pleasant - foreign desktop settings, grimy keyboards, crazy font sizes and odd wallpaper - it's liken to borrowing someone's swim trunks. If you're a Linux desktop user and are forced to use someone's Windows machine, the experience may be more on par with borrowing a toothbrush.

Outsourcing is here to stay | Network World

Jack Welch, retired GE CEO, recently responded to a question about outsourcing in his weekly column Winning. The question: How can we change things in the United States so we don't have to outsource to India and other countries anymore? His response was a simple - we can't and we shouldn't.
