Podcast
Building the Data Center on Small Victories (31:35 minutes)
Keeping an operating budget in place can be a lot easier when you have
something to show for it. Sometimes that requires strategy. IT managers
can keep the cash flowing by setting themselves up for quick wins and
small victories. "We've seen that when a customer is successful in
breaking down a large project into a set of quick wins, there are some
very positive outcomes from that," said HP's Duncan Campbell.

Today's Story Highlights

Enterprise Web Apps: The Next Generation
When the bright folks at Zeebox, a killer social TV site, decided to
build their website, they naturally turned to cloud services because
they are a startup and had to use their money wisely. They also turned
to the Scala language and open source community because they had very
specific scalability and performance needs.

Google Pours Chrome Into Android
Google has brought its Chrome Web browser to the Android Market. A beta
edition of the browser is available from the app shop now for free, but
since its operation is restricted to the latest version of the mobile
operating system, Ice Cream Sandwich, only about 1 percent of Android's
millions of users will be able to take the software for a test drive.

Radio Tray: Tiny Web Radio Player Is Handy but Picks Up Some Static
If you spend a lot of time at your keyboard, no doubt you dabble a lot
in listening to Internet radio. Radio Tray is a relatively new Linux app
that can make tuning in to your favorite radio stations a new
experience. Radio Tray is a streaming player for online radio that sits
on the Linux desktop panel. Think of this app as a shortcut that hides
the browser interface.

Wolfram Alpha to Get Brainier
How much does a civil engineer in New Orleans make? What is the average
temperature there? What are the differences in the trigonometric
functions of sin, cos and tan? What is the exchange rate between the
U.S. and the UK right now? Throw one of these questions at Siri, the
voice assistant in iPhone 4S, and she will speedily reply. Fueling Siri
is Wolfram Alpha, a computational knowledge search engine.

Anon Lets Fly With Symantec Code After Ransom Talks Collapse
Hackers who were negotiating a ransom for stolen source code to a
Symantec product released the data via peer-to-peer networks on Tuesday
after negotiations fell through. The code is for security vendor
Symantec's pcAnywhere remote access software.

Google Gets in Your Eyes
Google's apparently taking a cue from movies like "Iron Man" and "The
Terminator" in designing one of its upcoming products: eyewear that
displays data and information to the wearer. The Internet giant's
glasses are reportedly in the late prototype stage. They are likely
going to run a version of Android, connect to the Internet, include
Global Positioning System functionality and double as a phone, according
to the report.

3D Printer Joins Organ Replacement Revolution
They're building people out of 3D printers now -- parts, anyway.
LayerWise announced Sunday that it has applied a process called
"additive manufacturing" to produce a titanium total lower jaw implant
for facial reconstruction. The project was developed in collaboration
with partners from medical industries and academia. This is the first
complete patient-specific implant for the lower jaw.
