Today's Story Highlights

LightSquared Mucks Up GPS Signals, Flunks Network Test
LightSquared's plans for launching a faster wireless network have been
hampered by new government tests that show the broadband network could
interfere with GPS systems. The proposed wireless network, being
developed by LightSquared, is supposed to be the fastest way yet to
access a broadband network.

Anonymous Arrests: How Do You Behead That Which Has No Head?
Spanish police announced Friday they have arrested the leaders of the
Anonymous hacker group in that country. They also claim to have found a
server that coordinated and implemented computer attacks on government,
financial and business websites worldwide, including the Sony's
PlayStation Network, at the home of one of the trio.

The Power of Perception in the Technology Playground
Apple and Microsoft are competitors, and while both companies are
clearly more concerned with Google than each other at the moment, they
serve as a great example of why good, well-funded marketing is
important. Apple leads the world in the art of crafting perceptions. The
perception driving the two companies' stock valuations has Apple solidly
in the lead and doing impressive damage.

Linux: Not for (Married) Lovers?
Last Thursday. Linux Girl was scouting around the blogosphere, as per
usual, listening in on thread after thread of current discussion. Amid
all the well-worn topics that have already been picked apart ad nauseum,
however, one jumped out. "Linux is only for bachelors," the blog post's
title proclaimed.

A Map App That Does America's Majestic National Parks Justice
I've hiked and backpacked in five U.S. National Parks, and all of them
featured stunning vistas and made for amazing, memorable trips. In all
of those parks, though, hiking buddies and I always end up purchasing a
big, sturdy map, and the go-to publisher is the National Geographic
Society.
