The Obama administration filed its first official complaint about China to the World Trade Organization on Tuesday, and it was all about steel, aluminum and access to raw materials. ...
With the news that its omnipresent-on-the-desktop Flash player will be available in more mobile forms before the end of the year, Adobe is finally following through on its goal of joining the smartphone party -- but the two biggest names in that market are still missing from the invitation list ...
Some positive reviews and a humorous (and expensive) TV ad campaign have helped, but online measurement service comScore is providing Microsoft's new search engine even more wind beneath its Bing with new statistics indicating gains in Microsoft search sites' penetration and their share of search results pages ...
The recession may indeed be forcing you to cut back on some cellphone and cable television services, but apparently it will only get your high-speed Internet access when it pries your computer mouse from your cold, dead hands. ...
"The whole world is watching" was one of the loudest rallying cries of Vietnam protesters gathered in the streets of Chicago outside the Democratic convention in 1968. Forty-one years later, the same slogan still applies and is even more relevant in the chaotic streets of Tehran. Thanks to Twitter, Facebook, Flickr and other social media technologies, the whole world is indeed watching Iranian citizens rise up against suspect presidential election results...
For years, China's government has kept the country's Internet surfers on a very short leash. Censors attempt to block any content considered immoral, which could be anything from pornography to politically charged blog posts ...
Just when you thought you had that 12:01 a.m. Saturday deadline figured out for this weekend's big switch from analog to digital television, along comes another form of midnight madness to worry about -- that is, if you want to make it easier for Facebook friends to reach you, or have a brand you want to protect from the dark side of social media ...
The soundtrack for today's column is provided by the Dex Romweber Duo and their new CD, "Ruins of Berlin." It's a choice slice of rockabilly heaven with several tunes that would fit right in streaming from a jukebox in some blood-soaked Quentin Tarantino epic. Yet for all the retro goodness in the sound, my vision was filled with newfangled digital technology the night I saw the band in a smoky East Atlanta bar...
It's no accident that the new Palm Pre smartphone is compatible with Apple's iTunes. The man who helped Steve Jobs turn the iPod and its online music store into a digital revolution is the same man who has helped design the Pre and its well-reviewed webOS operating system ...
It's a fact that might not bring a lot of comfort to consumers and businesses, but it's true: The methods for protecting e-commerce transactions haven't changed a great deal since online shopping became a viable option in the early '90s. SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) and TSL (Transport Layer Security) encryption are the protocols that slap on that little padlock you see at the bottom of a Web site once you've begun the purchase process...

It applies to sports and smartphones: If you're an underdog, you will always be compared to the reigning champs until you knock them off their pedestal. The mission, then, for Palm during Saturday's retail launch of its Pre smartphone was relatively simple: Get as close as possible to an iPhone-style score, and don't commit any turnovers ...
Pop quiz: If you can remember the last time you saw a "backpack" journalist -- a one-person band, an all-platform journalist, whatever you want to call them -- filing a story on a network evening newscast or a prime-time cable news broadcast, scream out that reporter's name. Loud. ...
Microsoft is controlling the early buzz at the massive E3 video game convention with its Project Natal technology, which allows gamers to interact with their Xbox 360s without the need for handheld controllers. ...
The same developers who gave you Google Maps now think they've come up with the single best way for users to navigate all the communication and collaboration tools they currently use on a computer. Judging from some early tech press/blogger reaction, as well as an early thumbs-up from the development community, Google Wave may indeed have the ability to take on not only the most popular office applications, but also the hottest social networks...
It's a love-hate relationship right up there with dysfunctional parents du jour Jon and Kate (minus 8); the media has a middle-school crush on Twitter, and the media is the first to say nasty things about Twitter while Twitter is in study hall ...
Stockholm-based Spotify is still trying to navigate a maze of licensing obstacles before it can launch a U.S. version of its much-hyped desktop streaming music application. Yet its developers showed how they've been keeping busy Wednesday with an Android smartphone app demonstration during the Google I/O conference in San Francisco ...
When he tried to log on to Nokia's new Ovi app store Tuesday, ABI Research senior analyst Jeff Orr found a lot of blank screens ...
