Get mobile addicts out of the BlackBerry jam

Getting more out of the net

Comment Even for applications that are restricted to internal users, the use of such managed data centre resources is attractive - especially for smaller businesses. SaaS means the infrastructure is provided and managed by the software vendor itself... [02 Nov 2007]

The Weekly Round-Up: 10.08.07

Round-Up So what am I talking about? And no I'm not talking about the new iMac - although that's pretty cool too, I mean who else could design a computer that looks as good as a supermodel while keeping the eco-freaks happy too (aluminum is a very desirable... [10 Aug 2007]
