    25 computer products that refuse to die 02/04/2009 02:01:00

    Old computer products, like old soldiers, never die. They stay on the market--even though they haven't been updated in eons.

    For Microsoft, the pain is just starting 23/01/2009 08:18:00

    Microsoft cuts 5,000 jobs. That's the big news of the week. Not just because the layoffs will cut one in 20 of Microsoft's 91,000 employees.

    The six commandments of social networking at work 08/07/2008 09:41:38

    It can be easy to disregard social networking's professional potential if you're only going on what you see on television. Between endlessly replayed clips where hysterical young men beg everyone to leave Britney Spears alone and the eyebrow-raising antics that a MySpace pinup performs on "A Shot at Love with Tila Tequila," it's understandable that many businesspeople are tempted to write off MySpace, Facebook, LinkedIn, or Twitter as career-killers and some IT leaders consider pulling the plug on social networking use within the business.
