Aconex featured on ITBusinessEdge: “Project Management Service Unlocks Panama Canal Collaboration”

Aconex news: While most people generally appreciate the pay-as-you-go nature of software-as-a-service, the more significant benefit of the SaaS model may be how quickly it allows many companies to collaborate on the same project.

Computer History Museum featured in Forbes: Mark Zuckerberg on Steve Jobs: He’s Great and Other Answers

On Wednesday night, Facebook chief executive and founder Mark Zuckerberg was interviewed by David Kirkpatrick, author of “The Facebook Effect,” and moderator Guy Raz of NPR at the Computer History Museum in Mountain View, California. The world’s youngest billionaire was noticeably more composed and less sweaty than he was in his interview last month at the Dow Jones D8 Conference (there was no hoodie with enigmatic symbols this time either). Yet even in the comfort and informality of the setting which, in the small auditorium with only a few hundred attendees, resembled a fireside chat at times, it was clear that this was not a Chief Executive who enjoyed being on stage.

Following a bland TV interview with Diane Sawyer for ABC News on Thursday, Mark Zuckerberg came to life Thursday night at the Computer History Museum in Mountain View, Calif., for an event commemorating the release of David Kirkpatrick’s “The Facebook Effect.?

ServiceMesh featured in Network World: The Challenges of cloud security

ServiceMesh news: Some IT execs dismiss public cloud services as being too insecure to trust with critical or sensitive application workloads and data. But not Doug Menefee, CIO of Schumacher Group, an emergency management firm in Lafayette, La.

“Of course there’s risk associated with using cloud services – there’s risk associated with everything you do, whether you’re walking down the street or deploying an e-mail solution out there. You have to weigh business benefits against those risks,” he says.

Computer History Museum featured in PC World: MacPaint Source Code Archived Online

If you were a Mac user in the 1980s, chances are you knew–and loved–Apple’s MacPaint drawing program, developed by Bill Atkinson. The application, which paved the way for programs like Photoshop by developing key tools like the paint bucket and lasso, has long been remembered fondly by developers and users alike–and on Tuesday, its source code was formally inaugurated into the Computer History Museum’s online collection.

Computer History Museum featured in Business Week: Apple Donates MacPaint Source Code to Computer History Museum

One of the earliest bits of software that made the original Macintosh computer so interesting to use and unusual for its time was a drawing program called MacPaint.

Released in 1984 with the Mac, it is fondly remembered not only by those who used it, but also by computer scientists for numerous first-of-a-kind innovations. Those who spend a lot of time using Adobe Photoshop constantly use such features as the lasso tool for selecting non-rectangular shapes, and the paint bucket for filling closed areas with a pattern, and later, color. Both first appeared in MacPaint. The program was unique at the time for its ability to create graphics that could then be used in other applications.

Fujitsu featured in IT Jungle: Microsoft Azure: An AS/400 for Private and Public Clouds

I may be a whippersnapper compared to many of you dyed-in-the-wool System/38, System/36, and AS/400 old-timers, but I have been around long enough to see the irony of things with a certain amount of good humor and healthy detachment. And so I got a good chuckle last week when I saw that Microsoft was taking its Azure public cloud computing platform private, and perhaps to many more masses than it would have gotten through a public-only cloud.

Fujitsu featured in eWeek: IT Infrastructure: Fujitsu Massively Expands Data Center Co-location Capacity

Fujitsu America’s Sunnyvale, Calif., headquarters is an expansive piece of property that once housed large-scale manufacturing operations. Over the years that manufacturing capacity has been relocated. So the company has transformed much of that space into data center-ready square footage—32,071 square feet, to be exact. Fujitsu isn’t new to the data center business. For years, the company has hosted custom application deployments for customers who requested such service. Now it has invested tens of millions of dollars and is opening more of its secure data center floor space to companies seeking professional Web, cloud computing and application co-location services.
