Facebook may not be dying anytime soon, but I think you paint an accurate picture of the future of social. I have a folder on my iPhone where I store different social media apps. It's much easier to have a bunch of smaller...

The iPhone and iPhone 6 are putting some serious pressure on Samsung. I wonder how many of Apple's customers would have switched to Android if Apple hadn't made the jump to larger devices.

My impression is that all these people got together and said "Hey, what do YOU want from 5G?" and they made this crazy, bulletpoint list from a bunch of people who can imagine this great "Back to the Future" world where...

for every time Facebook's death has been predicted, I'd be a very rich Ninja by now. Everyone loves to hate Facebook, expecially my Facebook friends. As soon as something new comes out, the same Zuckophobes always join the...

Really interesting to learn that Apple has surpassed Samsung in smartphone sales, I guess this explains Samsung's S6. To say the competition is fierce in this arena might be an understatement.
In reply to: Samsung vs, Apple Smartphone Battle Continues
It will be very interesting to see what kind of inroads Samsung can make with mobile payments with the S6. I am a Samsung user and while this model is tempting, I don't think I will be upgrading anytime soon.

Most new software companies are getting established by following the open source model. Docker is a good example. But Splunk is a viable exception. Making server log data decipherable was a huge step and they were there...

Thanks for the fast reply. I'm guessing a 32, 64, 128GB tier structure. Have you heard anything on the battery charge life and recharging time? Also, if it's one-battery-fits-all or a high capacity battery,...

Cisco's UCS caught the virtualization wave and serves as a platform for consolidating servers in the data center. Virtualized UCS servers have strong network support. The virtual switch in the hypervisor offloads its switching...

@Joe, you have a unique perspective on this: Do you think that rolling up wireless broadband under Title II is going to have any real impact on customers?
In reply to: Re: The last link
@Li Tan, Cisco has been building their wireless expertise for years, so HP didn't really have a choice unless it was going to simply cede all end-to-end RFPs to Cisco. I think the interesting question will be what some of...

@Gary_EL, you're right, and I think that the percentage of users who connect solely via wireless is going to increase in coming years. Figuring out how to deliver secure, reliable service to high-density user clusters isn't...

I had a conversation with the Samsung product manager today. He confirmed a few things: 1. Samsung Pay will be launched this summer in the US and South Korea. 2. The system works with cards from finnancial institutions...

It was funny. How about this:

You could uninstall these apps by rooting your device. Else you could uninstall app updates and disable the app from the App manager on Android. This will help you have a faster device. Rooting? I'm certain that's not doable...

@LiTan- I don't think we're talking about replacing the Iron Chefs with actual Iron chefs. The issue is that it learned while watching video how to do something complicated. It actually doesn't matter if it cooks with flair...

@Joe- Right. But the issue is that there's a distinct problem Google needs to solve which is that its own developer community is having difficulties surfacing apps. They are offering this as a solution to surfacing apps,...

Yeah, I was given a free Z10 at the launch event -- like everyone else there. It was fine - a decent, state-of-the-industry (though not of the art) phone for its day. But then all the phone snobs would look at the Blackberry...

InformationWeek Tech Digest, Dec. 9, 2014Apps will make or break the tablet as a work device, but don't shortchange critical factors related to hardware, security, peripherals, and integration.
Building a Mobile Business Mindset
The differences between mobile apps and conventional Windows clients, or even web applications, are far more than skin deep. Yes, the touch-versus-keyboard interface, APIs, and programming languages are new, but that’s arguably the easy part. There are profound differences in how the two are built, the functionality each prioritizes, the release cycles on which they’re developed — even the attitudes, values, and work styles of the developers creating them.
