Podcast
The Prosumerization of the Enterprise (32:35 minutes)
Enterprise employees interact with consumer-oriented technology on a
daily basis, and the advancement of those consumer devices is changing
their expectations when it comes to enterprise technology. Applications
may need to behave more like apps. Provisioning may need to be more like
running an app store. And self-service and intuitive adoption of new
features need to be built in as primary requirements.

Avoiding All-Too-Common App Development Pitfalls
Software development drives business innovation, but many application
development teams are stymied by some common, solvable challenges that
can sidetrack the success not only of their project, but also of their
company. The top three: achieving effective alignment with business
concerns; managing time over the course of a project; and building for
reuse.

Kino: An Easy-Does-It but Incomplete Video Editor
Video editing in any operating system is a wide-open experience. Unlike
word processing and audio editing tools, video editing apps present a
wider range of options. The Kino Video Editor is a very capable video
editing solution that will appeal to novices and moderate users alike.
However, it lacks the full range of sophisticated features that seasoned
video pros require.

Sprint's Singing the iPhone Blues
A leaked internal memo indicates Sprint is dealing with significant
problems relating to iPhone data speeds on its network. Users are
complaining about particularly slow download rates. "Sprint has been
offloading much of its data on its [4G] Clearwire WiMax network, but the
iPhone doesn't support WiMax, so that means Sprint's CDMA network has to
carry all the load," said In-Stat's Allen Nogee.
