This may be election week, but the big political battle isn't really the mid-term elections -- it's the drama going on between Oracle and HP with the unprecedented action of Oracle's CEO and founder calling HP's new CEO a thief in what appears to be a massive pre-emptive effort to discredit the man. However, like the elections, I think this is mostly smoke to cover up other problems Oracle has, and that's what I'll focus on this political week.

Unfortunately, I think I'm part of a group that is becoming extinct. Regardless of which party holds office in the U.S., my true hope is for its success, because I have this twisted view that if we have successful president, we'll have a better quality of life. Unfortunately, both of the U.S. parties seem to be competing as to which can screw up the country more effectively and, at the moment, the Democrats are winning, largely because they control government. ...
The network resistance to Google may be a result of how Google typically obtains content, suggested Rob Enderle, principal of the Enderle Group. "The problem is that Google has been cavalier with how they deal with other people's intellectual property," he told the E-Commerce...

With U.S. citizens getting shot on U.S. borders -- and the folks investigating them literally losing their heads, with Facebook and Twitter friends using location information to determine when your home is vacant and available for looting, and with the U.S. being named as botnet capital of the world, I expect we all are feeling less than secure at the moment. ...
"When you develop a behavior as a child, you will likely carry it into adulthood," Rob Enderle, principal analyst for the Enderle Group, told TechNewsWorld.

"Microsoft and Facebook really want to know their users intimately so they can serve up better services, offer up more targeted advertisements and make themselves more valuable to advertisers," Rob Enderle, principal analyst at the Enderle Group, told TechNewsWorld. "In the end, they'll create a virtual you and, if that virtual you is highly modeled, it will have a very high value to advertisers."
