Chipmaker ARM has announced a tiny product with huge implications. The company unveiled its ARM Cortex M0+, a 1mm microchip it says can push the edge of the Internet beyond your laptop or PC. Everything is on the drawing board -- from a network-enabled fridge to devices powered by your body's heat.
Last week, Cisco raised an objection to the Microsoft acquisition of Skype, saying it would hurt video conferencing interoperability -- even though, in this space, you could argue Cisco is not the poster child for interoperability. Coincidently, I met with the CEO of LifeSize, and he saw this Micro...
Slingbox lets you watch your television remotely. The Slingbox hardware device captures the source image and audio at your home and squirts it into the Internet. Proprietary software is used to replicate a television-like experience on laptops or other devices like smartphones. Hardware-based infrar...
It's well-known that iPhone owners use lots of cellular bandwidth, but it seems that the iPhone 4S has taken bandwidth consumption to new heights. Owners of the iPhone 4S use twice as much data as iPhone 4 users and nearly three times as much data as iPhone 3G users, according to an Arieso report. H...
If there was ever a year for train wrecks, 2011 was it. It is that time when we look back at the screwy decisions executives made last year, and be thankful that we aren't them. There were a number of career-limiting moves last year that warrant a top spot on my Bozo meter. HP and Cisco are contende...
For years, security vendors have warned users to be careful about unsolicited emails. Clicking on embedded links in these emails, they say, could be dangerous, as could opening attachments that come with them. That includes emails purporting to be from couriers such as DHL and UPS, which could in fa...
Last week, Facebook launched its video chat. Saying this was going to be an "awesome" announcement and then showcasing basic video chat and group text chat was, and I'm being kind, disappointing. Still, Facebook does have something amazing here -- I just don't think it's worked out yet. But I do thi...
As Facebook announced on Wednesday that its subscribers will be able to launch video chats from its site using Skype technology, one sentence -- written by Philip Su, an engineer on Facebook's video calling team -- stood out in particular. "Video chat has been around for years now, but it's still no...
OK, last week was a really interesting week. We had AMD basically divorcing itself from Intel's model after living under Intel's shadow from inception; we had Google repeating yet another of Microsoft's greatest mistakes; we had IBM repeat a famous political debate by basically saying Oracle wasn't ...
On June 8, major enterprises with a presence on the Internet such as Google, Yahoo, Microsoft, Akamai and several United States government agencies will be among the organizations providing their content over both IPv4 and IPv6. The occasion: June 8 is World IPv6 Day. IPv4 is the existing Internet p...
This last few weeks has been kind of amazing as I've watched companies like Oracle and Cisco, which are well regarded for brilliant moves, seem to suddenly act as if they were naked and wanted to run with scissors. Then, when I was convinced that I'd seen the worst, Sony decided to piss off the open...
Although security breaches make the headlines regularly and Washington has plans to upgrade the security of the United States' national infrastructure, up-and-coming IT security companies are having difficulty securing investment funds. The U.S. Defense Department plans to spend $500 million on rese...
It may be an increasingly digital, electronic and paperless world, but that doesn't mean it doesn't use a lot of energy. In particular, data centers -- those places that store, maintain, and manage all the bits and bytes that keep things humming -- use tremendous amounts of energy. Greening these ce...
Cisco pulled the plug on its Flip digital video camera earlier this week, putting an end to its line of popular, relatively low-cost dedicated digital video cameras. Up until December, Cisco had invested a lot of time and effort into building up the market for the device. Could Cisco's stunning reve...
Last week was a busy week that seemed to be filled with crazy people -- some in a good way, most not so much. The most annoying story was that Cisco is shutting down its half-billion-dollar Flip acquisition after screwing it up. On a positive note, Microsoft surprised us at its MIX conference with W...
