Podcast
Tearing Down Silos With Holistic ALM (15:56 minutes)
In order to address shortcomings with application performance and
availability, "we started looking at the technology silos and bringing
them together in one holistic perspective," said Blue Cross and Blue
Shield's Victor Miller. To begin addressing the problems, "we had to
break down the technology silos and really focus on the whole picture of
the application, and not just the individual components of the applications.

Today's Story Highlights

Scientists Untangle Tough Quantum Computing Knot
A team of scientists has achieved what might prove to be a breakthrough
in quantum computing. The group has managed to partially suppress
quantum decoherence, one of the major obstacles to quantum computing, by
using crystalline molecular magnets. Decoherence, which is a much-
debated topic, is believed to be the loss of information from a system
into the environment that fixes a system into one state.

Labs Go Dark as Google Puts Away Childish Things
In a continuing effort to streamline product development, Google
announced Wednesday the company will be shutting down its Google Labs
project. The Google Labs initiative was the tech giant's testing
facility, where employees and engineers were given creative freedom to
tinker with experimental projects that perhaps didn't necessarily fall
within their job descriptions.

In a Flash, Adobe's 64-Bit Flash for Linux Is Back
It was only a month ago that Adobe cut off Linux's AIR, so bloggers may
be excused if they were a bit surprised by last week's news. Namely? In
yet another twist in the company's on-again/off-again relationship with
our favorite open source operating system -- a roller-coaster ride that
involved taking away 64-bit Flash for Linux last year -- Adobe has now
apparently seen fit to bring it back again.

Lion's Roar Is Powerful - and Disorienting
There's a lot to love and like about Mac OS X Lion, but it's far more
disorienting and confusing than I ever imagined. I've been using Macs
since the early 1990s, and I faithfully upgrade to new versions of the
operating system quickly. The original Mac OS X was a pretty big leap,
but Lion, it sure seems now, offers more in the way of interaction
transformation than I ever expected.

Lenovo's Tablet Trio to Take On the iPad
Lenovo unveiled its first round of tablets on Wednesday: the IdeaPad K1
for consumers; the ThinkPad for business customers; and the Windows 7-
powered IdeaPad P1 for home and office use. The IdeaPad K1 and ThinkPad
tablets are the first Lenovo mobile Internet devices to feature the
Android 3.1, or Honeycomb, platform.
