Microsoft and Me

By Dave Michels on June 20, 2013

Regarding desktops, tablets, and smartphones – I am considering going pure Microsoft. That will mean two new mobile devices, and then switching to IE and Office 365. I will lose apps on my mobile devices and hinder my path to WebRTC. It will be a difficult transition. Why? It really boils down to two frustrations. […]

Emerging LTE and the iPad

Emerging LTE and the iPad

By Guest Authors on March 22, 2013

I have been using the new iPad with Retina display for almost a year now. It’s great. But I have noticed an interesting problem: once you use Retina resolution you simply cannot go back. Traditional LCD displays look grainy and give me a headache to look at for any duration. The human brain is an […]

Sure Dropbox is Potentially Insecure, but Does it Matter?

By Ben Kepes on January 21, 2013

It’s summertime down in my neck of the woods and that’s a good time to go out on a limb with a statement that might get people a little fired up. Bear with me on this one though… Over on GigaOm Barb Darrow has a good write up about the findings of a survey commissioned […]

BYOD Is All About Enabling The Organization Of The Future

BYOD Is All About Enabling The Organization Of The Future

By Ben Kepes on November 30, 2012

A while ago over on GigaOm, Matt McLarty of Layer 7 Technologies wrote an awesome post about the rise of Bring Your Own Device or BYOD. For those who haven’t spent much time thinking about the term, BYOD describes the new paradigm where individuals within an organization supply their own devices (mobile,

Read before you share - otherwise it's gossip

Read before you share – otherwise it’s gossip

By Martijn Linssen on November 19, 2012

A rubbish post by Business Insider titled “This Survey Is Devastating For Microsoft: 42% Of Windows Users Plan To Switch To Apple” and a very dubious post by the New York Times titled “The Tablet Market Grows Cluttered” drew my attention today – the latter claimed that About 98 percent of Web traffic from tablets comes […]

Surface & iPad Collision Course

Surface & iPad Collision Course

By Adron Hall on November 19, 2012

Ok, I’d been looking around for a Surface I could try out. Even though I have my doubts about Windows 8 and especially RT I also am excited about a lot of the features that these operating system(s) have. But amid the parts that I hate and parts I hate, there is the simple fact […]

The Best Government Money Can Buy

The Best Government Money Can Buy

By Guest Authors on November 1, 2012

I work in Asia where government influence (“bribes”) is exceedingly common. Granted, it is officially illegal, but as a practical matter it is essential. I remember traveling into Cambodia via rail. At the border crossing there is an immigration office where you apply for and get a visa to enter. The room was packed with […]

BMC Launches MyIT – Bridging the IT/Business Divide

By Ben Kepes on November 1, 2012

Cross posted from the BMC blog. I spend most of my time talking to technology vendors, IT folks and business people all in an effort to drive organizational benefits through the use of technology. Over years of doing this, I’ve noticed a stark divide that exists within an organization between

Actually, Cars that Fly and Float May Not Be So Bad

Actually, Cars that Fly and Float May Not Be So Bad

By Zoli Erdos on October 26, 2012

Apple CEO Tim Cook left behind his old metaphor of “fridge and toaster” and is now calling Windows 8 a car that flies and floats, while not exactly doing either function very well. I am not exactly a Win8 fanboy, but there are a few (emphasis on few) things Win8 is doing well: informative tiles […]

Mobile First?  The Desktop Still Has Three Good Years Left in It in SaaS

Mobile First? The Desktop Still Has Three Good Years Left in It in SaaS

By Jason M. Lemkin on October 15, 2012

“Mobile First.”  OK, we all get it.  Look what’s happening on Facebook, as the majority of its usage has rapidly transitioned to mobile, throwing at least a wrench  into its browser-based ad model for the time being.  Google, Zynga, etc. the impact is huge and clear.  Apple seems to be the only one in consumer […]

Want to Know How to Better Partner With, Raise Money From or Be Acquired by a Big Media Company?

By Mark Suster on August 23, 2012

This is one of the best episodes of This Week in VC for a long time. I had the chance to speak with Andrew Siegel who runs corp dev & strategy for Condé Nast (aka Advance Publications). In case you don’t know, they are one of the biggest media companies in the world. They are […]

Microsoft, Apple And The Competition In The Post PC Era

By Krishnan Subramanian on July 4, 2012

After Microsoft announced their beautiful Surface tablet and positioned it as a tablet that bridges the gap with the PC, there was some discussions on whether we are heading into the post-PC world dominated by tablets or we are going to see a new form of device that is neither tablet nor PC. Some even […]

FileTrek Fulfills Need for Workgroup Transparency

By Ben Kepes on June 5, 2012

As more and more applications are enabled on mobile platforms, there is an ever increasing need to ensure that corporate IT and managers of workgroups have visibility over who accesses and makes changes to files. Historically there has been an emphasis on enabling mobile access, but a relative absence of focus on ensuring transparency over […]

Dell’s Rock and Hard Spot

Dell’s Rock and Hard Spot

By Dave Michels on February 24, 2012

The Apple iPad is booming, but does that mean the PC is dying? The enterprise seems to to view the iPad not as an OR, but an AND. But the consumer PC is not so resilient. This week Dell reported Fourth Quarter Results: “Dell Inc.’s (DELL) fiscal fourth-quarter earnings fell 18% as the computer maker saw revenue […]
