There are some interesting crumbs dropped by Cisco execs in the company's data center blog that describes where Cisco believes the data center is headed. To support new applications such as those presented by Google's Chrome browser and Google Gears, along with the movement of applications away from traditional PCs to mobile devices, Omar Sultan writes that the back end infrastructure will be virtualized and processes would be automated.

Over the past two days news has trickled out that NebuAd's CEO has resigned and the company is now suspending their web-monitoring plans. Blogs and mainstream media are not only calling this a win for online privacy, but a few have talked about how this will kill off deep packet inspection (DPI) as a technology. ZDnet's "Between the Lines" more specifically wrote: "...it doesn’t sound like there’s a long prosperous future ahead for deep packet ...

The search box circumvents the address bar After playing with Google’s Chrome browser for the last few days, I noticed the “Address” bar, which is just called a “Omnibox” (corrected from just “box” via comments) is really a search field. Anything entered into it will deliver a webpage (it first looks at your historical activities) or renders Google search results (or search of your preference, including twitter search). As a result, it’s become apparently that ...

The news is in . And it may upset some of you.Turns out that only slightly more than half of adults know what social networking is.According to eMarketer's reporting on a recent Synovate study, only 58% of the multinational respondents knew what social networking is. While some of you might be thinking, "How can that be? I spend my life on Facebook/MySpace/Hi5/Bebo/Orkut."What's interesting to me is the specific geographical breakouts - the Dutch, Japanese, and ...

First it was Bloomberg alerting the world, mistakenly, that Steve Jobs had passed away. A horrible blunder that got plenty of coverage in the blogs, but really died out (sorry) quickly as a story, mainly because all major papers have these types of stories ready to roll in case the inevitable occurs. Yesterday I was alerted of the mistake made by the HR department of Carat, a large media agency in New York. Seems that ...

How do you find inspiration? Is it something that you seek outwardly or wait for it to hit you like a brick? The best source of inspiration, for me, is when I sit down, online or off, with people I’ve known for a long time. It might be a conversation concerning their jobs, politics, their family, the weather…it really doesn’t matter. The reason it doesn’t matter is that I have a track record with these ...

New startups can spend hundreds of thousands of dollars racing after a dream: a giant splash on launch. Just imagine... a big spread in Time Magazine, a feature on all the relevant blogs, a glowing review in the Book Review. Get this part right and everything else takes care of itself. And yet. Here are some brands that had no launch at all: Starbucks, Apple, Nike, Harry Potter, Google, William Morris, The DaVinci Code, Wikipedia, ...

RBC Capital Markets Managing Director Mark Sue foresees 6% top line growth for Alcatel-Lucent in calendar year 2009. According to Sue: "For CY09, we are assuming just 6% top line growth to our estimate of EUR18.2B. Stronger demand for wireline access infrastructure, growth in optical, and price stabilization in wireless may enable Alcatel-Lucent to potentially expand on this growth rate but we're still maintaining a conservative stance at this point given the company's inconsistent execution." ...

When you’re well-connected to the community of communicators applying social media to their companies’ and clients’ communication challenges, you come across a lot of truly excellent case studies. If you’ve produced such an effort, why not get recognized for it? Recognition does far more than boost your ego. When honored for a program you executed that some in your company don’t understand, the fact that an esteemed group of judges deemed it worthwhile can elevate ...

A fascinating read yesterday in The Wall Street Journal about the campaign of Senator McCain purchasing search terms. The article quite correctly states that the McCain camp has outsmarted Senator Obama’s campaign, at least in this one area. Here is where it gets interesting, in my opinion: “The big downfall is that Obama’s not reaching the undecided voters,” says Janel Landis, senior director of search development and strategy at SendTec, a search-marketing firm that has ...

Dennis had another interesting interview this week, this time with James Magera about designing the user interface for the BreakingPoint testing solutions and his national ranking in Olympic-style archery. Pretty cool stuff; the UI and the archery. Thanks for all the suggestions on who to film and keep them coming and if you prefer you can ping us on Twitter.
