Protect your data ... or pay the price
We took a closer look recently at the FTC's "Red Flag Rule," which requires many businesses to enact plans to "detect the warning signs –- or 'red flags' –- of identity theft in their day-to-day operations." When it comes to privacy protection, though, that's just the beginning. (more)

DigitalNow Blog: Millenial social media refusniks
Contrary to what you may have heard, not all members of the "new school" generation have been eager to adopt social media. In fact, there are enough of them holding out to earn them their own name: refusniks. Refusniks are the 18 - 29-year-olds who eschew the practice of connecting and communicating on sites such as Facebook, Twitter, and MySpace. Their reasons vary - some are fiercely protective of their privacy and others just simply hate typing. Since Facebook just announced that it has 300 millio... (more)

Identity theft: Do you know the 'red flags?'
The FTC has implemented what's commonly know as the "Red Flag Rule." The rule requires many businesses -- and yes, for the time being, that includes CPA firms -- to enact policies that will, in the FTC's own words, "detect the warning signs –- or 'red flags' –- of identity theft in their day-to-day operations."

Application Vendors Should Focus on Business Functionality

Application Vendors Should Focus on Business Functionality
A few weeks ago, I wrote about the difficulties many organizations face when they attempt to strike a balance between keeping up to date on Microsoft technologies and optimizing their internal operations. Many businesses and member based organizations are turning to packaged software products rather than taking responsibility for building business applications from the ground up. A similar case can be made for commercial software vendors who believe that their main competitive advantage resides in business ... (more)

Keeping Pace with Microsoft Releases
Although the pace of software releases from Microsoft has slowed somewhat in recent years, it is still difficult for many organizations to keep up with the various service packs and new product versions that appear on a regular basis. Even organizations that do not develop software in-house must deal with periodic upgrades for operating systems, database server platforms, and the Office suite. An organization that has taken charge of developing software in-house must also bear the burden of testing and modi... (more)

Top 5 Web Trends of 2009: Structured Data
Web of Data, Not Documents Tim Berners-Lee said in February this year that we're now in a Web of Data, rather than a Web of Documents. The organization that Berners-Lee heads, the W3C, has heavily promoted two key initiatives that are helping to build this Web of Data: the Semantic Web and more recently Linked Data. However over the past few years, we've seen that there are many other ways to structure dataand enable others to build off it. The best current example is surely Twitter, whose API has historica...

Should Your Organization "Go Google"? -
This month Google's running a billboard ad campaign (the only kind they do) in Boston, Chicago, New York and San Francisco encouraging businesses to switch to Google Apps from Lotus Notes or Microsoft Exchange. They call the transition "going Google" and even offer a convincing calculatorwhich shows you how much money your organization can save by outsourcing your IT needs to Google. Consider these impressive numbers pitting Google Apps Premier subscriptions (at $50 per user) against Microsoft Exchange 2007... (more)

How Companies Are Benefiting From Web 2.0
Over the past three years, we have tracked the rising adoption of Web 2.0 technologies, as well as the ways organizations are using them. This year, we sought to get a clear idea of whether companies are deriving measurable business benefits from their investments in the Web. Our findings indicate that they are. Nearly 1,700 executives from around the world, across a range of industries and functional areas, responded to this year's survey.

Data-Driven Science: A New Paradigm? (EDUCAUSE Review) | EDUCAUSE
When invited to participate in the NSF/JISC Repositories Workshop in April 2007 (http://www.sis.pitt.edu/~repwkshop/), I was tasked to consider if "data-driven science is becoming a new scientific paradigm — ranking with theory, experimentation, and computational science." I considered the question carefully. Ultimately, I arrived at the old adage concerning the difference between ignorance and apathy: I don't know and I don't care. Data-driven science may in fact be a legitimate, new, fourth scientific pa... (more)

DigitalNow Blog: The Ham from the Spam
We all want to get our good email, also known as "ham," but we don't want our inboxes getting crammed with what is commonly referred to as spam. And if you're like most people, you're getting more spam than ever. In fact, a recent study conducted by Message Labs indicated that in June of this year, spam accounted for 90.4% of all email sent. It is the job of your filter to decide which emails you want to read. Filters make that determination based on a combination of things such as content and header filter... (more)

How One iPhone App Could Save Public Radio - NYTimes.com
There may be no better example of that than an iPhone application built by several large public radio organizations and called Public Radio Player. The team behind the app launched a major new release this morning. The application aggregates live streaming and recorded radio broadcasts from across the US, displays their current and planned content schedules and now offers a search function that stretches across all those different types of content: live streams, podcasts and text show descriptions.

The Future of Search: Social Relevancy Rank
FriendFeed has recently launched a search feature, and so Facebook search must be coming soon. Real-time Web search (of streams of activities) is a hot topic right now. Everyone, including Google and Microsoft, recognizes the value of using trusted contacts as filters. What was once called social search is now called real-time search, but this time it will really happen. First, it will be applied to streams and then to the Web in general. What we are about to get is a Social Relevancy Rank. Whenever you sea... (more)
