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.

Today's Story Highlights

Facebook to Build Massive Arctic Data Fortress
Facebook is planning to build a massive new data center in the
industrial town of Lulea in Swedish Lapland, about 70 miles from the
Arctic Circle. The data center will consist of three buildings, the
first of which will cover about 33,000 square yards, Facebook
spokesperson Alex Kirschner told TechNewsWorld.

Easy Streaming From Smartphone to Home Stereo
The convenience of using your smartphone to store, stream and curate
your music collection -- or simply stream music from online,
personalized radio stations like Pandora -- doesn't mean you need to
sacrifice your home stereo system for the dubious quality earbuds that
came with the phone. The investment you've made in the stereo gear is as
valid as is it was when you bought it.

Unthink Rages Against the Facebook Machine
The creators of a new social network are challenging users to ditch
Facebook and other networks to "unthink" and de-clutter with their new,
completely user-controlled and private network. Unthink.com, launched
Tuesday in beta, hopes to capitalize on growing discontent among social
network users for support.

How Sweet Is Ice Cream Sandwich?
It's no secret that Linux fans tend to be fiercely proud of Android,
representing as it does Linux's biggest consumer-focused success so far.
Excitement over the newly unveiled version 4.0 of Google's wildly
popular mobile platform, however, just may be setting a new record. Buzz
over the latest iteration is practically drowning out all other
conversations in the blogosphere.

How Apple Can Clean Up in the Living Room
Like the super-duper Apple-focused analyst Gene Munster at Piper
Jaffray, I've long believed that Apple has been planning to create a new
television set. Apple's largest iMac and the Apple Thunderbolt Display
already boast a wicked-sharp 27-inch screen. With a current Apple TV
set-top box glued to the side of an HDTV, it's not hard to imagine an
all-in-one unit.
