Why are Microsoft and Dell seeking to temper enthusiasm about a possible warming trend in our winter of economic discontent? Are they more skillful progonsticators than other tech bellwethers, or are they simply trying to protect their collective behinds behind the recession's macroeconomic skirts? ...
There's a smoldering fight between Robert Scoble, Kara Swisher and Walt Mossberg over whether to talk about Web 3.0, as the AllthingsDigital crowd would have it, or "2010 Web," as Scoble suggests. All of them have it wrong. Web 3.0 sounds even more contrived than Web 2.0 ever did; Scoble, on the oth...
In a changing of the economic guard, Cisco was added to the Dow Jones Industrial Average this morning at the expense of General Motors. But while the promotion may be a sign of the company's adaptability in the face of troubled economic times, Cisco's ascendancy may be as short-lived as the communic...
Qualcomm's answer to Intel's Atom processor is called Snapdragon, but there's a lot more to this rivalry than catchy names. As Google's introduction of Wave, and Apple's iPod Touch and iPhone have made clear, the time is ripe for an explosion of low-cost, light-weight devices running cloud-based rat...
It's been clear for a while that Sony's game division has been in a world of competitive pain. The Playstation 3 still seems to lose money on every sale, with software title royalties not being enough to keep the organization in the black, and PS3 unit sales have flattened and are trending down. Now there's news of a new Playstation Portable model, the PSP Go, which is due for its official announcement tomorrow.
Apple recently announced that iPhone and iPod users could experience a small electrical shock when using ear buds. An annoyance, perhaps, but not as big as serious iPhone overheating. Over the last two years, there have been reported incidents of iPhones overheating. Apparently the problem is still around, as I just heard from a major tech executive that his wife's iPhone has been overheating, causing all the apps to close and the device to lock up.
I was almost sputtering when I ran across a New York Times media hagiography of Darren Herman, president of Varick Media Management. The article goes on about just how smart companies like Varick are for introducing mathematical analysis of a marketing campaign's results. The only hitch is that the ...

The news of Twitter in discussions with Hollywood for a Twitter-inspired TV show seems like the silly type of thing you'd have heard during the dot com boom. It seems to be reality show meets fad. But let's assume for a moment that the people involved are not nuts. I started thinking about this and realized that Twitter could -- and, more importantly, already does -- provide interactivity the broadcast industry has craved for years.
I have seen the future of Twitter, and it is Google Wave -- which trumps Tweeting by allowing "the merging of documents, feeds, photos, e-mail, instant messaging, [and] event planning" in real-time. Twitter is many things, I suppose, but one of its highly-touted functions is to give its users a s...
In the last few years, even in the face of its piles of money, Microsoft has developed something of a reputation for stumbling. Whether Vista disaster or online ineptitude, the pundit view has often been of a company that was clearly losing it. But as recent news is suggesting, Microsoft may be in a...
With Wave, which Google previewed for developers at its I/O conference yesterday, developers can for the first time create Web-based applications that compete with Microsoft in terms of quality (while utterly trumping it on price). It also creates the conditions for customers to comfortably shuck of...
The various press summaries of Dell's performance last quarter largely focused on falling revenue and profit. But if you look at little deeper at the numbers, Dell actually didn't take a sudden dive off a cliff, and things aren't as bad as they seem on the surface in the near term. But, long term, R&D spending that is low relative to competitors could create a problem.
AT&T's reaction to Apple playing footsie with Verizon was to buy a cute pair of pumps of its own. If you haven't seen those nice LTEs, they're over by the Ferragamos, Jimmy Choos and GSMs. AT&T not only admitted that its network wasn't doing the iPhone (or any other smartphone) justice, b...
The rumors of Apple planning on a billion dollar server farm are hot and heavy. It may be so much talk, the general idea might be right but the amount grossly exaggerated, or it could be accurate. Apple certainly has need for servers -- maybe management's hoping that more hardware might fix the note...
