If you see this before 10 AM today, April 11th, PDT, don’t miss pal Om Malik on a Webinar about how Broadband is affecting our lives, sponsored by WebEx. Om who is never at a loss for words likely has a few gems up his sleeve.
Interesting contest from the ‘Crunch bunch that shows some imagination. Reading between the lines it would appear that there has been a slow uptake to upgrading by Skype users to the new 3.0 platform, I mean, when you read this: New versions of Skype for Windows and Mac have been available for a little while … Read more
in what appears to be a natural home for him, ex-LightReading scoopster Mark Sullivan is over at PCWorld and now blogging on topical issues. Mark’s value is that he can communicate to an audience that is more mainstream, and not all early adopters. His post about some VoIP services not being ready for prime time … Read more
In what only a company the size of Google could pull off, on May 31st the giantG will organize, promote, host and broadcast a Global Developer Day in ten cities around the globe.
