Podcast
ALM: The Workflow Conqueror (16:59 minutes)
"ALM goes a long way to be able to conquer the various workflows," says
Todd Eaton, director of ALM tools and services at McKesson. "Within an
organization, there will be various workflows being done, but you're
still able to bring up those measurements, like another point that you
are bringing up, and have a fairly decent comparison."

Today's Story Highlights

Who Watches the Watchmen, Part 4: The Mobile Device Maelstrom
Enterprises and other large organizations have already begun riding the
wave of the consumerization of IT, and the voice of the mobile device
user is being heard through the land. Even the U.S. federal government
is reportedly letting staff bring in their own mobile devices to use at
work, leading to a shift away from BlackBerry devices and toward iPhones
and Android smartphones.

Better Living - Anywhere on the Planet - Through Technology
Last week marked the beginning of a big experiment for me: first living
and then retiring outside of the U.S. I figure there are a lot of
boomers like me who are exploring this idea as we become increasingly
concerned about the costs of living in our chosen country. Even thinking
about living outside the U.S. would be difficult if it weren't for
certain existing and emerging technologies.

Oracle and OpenOffice: The Final Insult
Things are never dull here in the Linux blogosphere, but there's no
doubt they would be a whole lot less entertaining without Oracle. How
else, after all, would we get the opportunity to ride on a thrilling
emotional roller coaster such as the one Oracle's had us on since it
acquired Sun? Regarding OpenOffice.org, in particular, it's been one
hair-raising twist and turn after another.

Weber's iOS App Sizzles With Grilling Greatness
My favorite apps are those that either inspire or delight, and Weber's
On the Grill for iPad does both. Weber, of course, is a well-known
manufacturer of outdoor barbecue grills. I actually own a Weber grill --
a small, somewhat portable one -- and it has served me well for hot
dogs, hamburgers, chicken and the occasional marinated flank steak.

Sony and the Rise of the Hacker Hordes
Sony's security nightmare just won't end. Earlier this week, malicious
hackers released a bundle of personal information on thousands of Sony
customers that was stolen -- quite easily, according to the infiltrators
-- from Sony's IT systems. That was only the latest in a long series of
cyberattacks the company's been suffering since mid-April, which forced
Sony to shut down its PlayStation Network for several weeks.
