Today's Story Highlights

Your Employees May Be Causing That Data Drip You're Hearing
Nearly 80 percent of organizations have experienced a data breach in the
last two years due to employee negligence or maliciousness. That was one
of the findings in a study released last week by the Ponemon Institute
and sponsored by antivirus software maker Trend Micro.

OnLive Almost Smooth Enough to Make You Forget You're in the Cloud
When I first considered taking a look at OnLive Desktop Plus, a cloud-
based service from OnLive that delivers a Microsoft Windows desktop-
like, touch-based experience on my iPad, I admit, I was skeptical.
Really skeptical, and not just because trying to describe the service is
a mouthful.

Has Canonical Found the Keys to the Computing Kingdom?
There seems to be no end in sight to the bold moves and bold
proclamations surrounding Ubuntu Linux these days. First we had the
debut of Ubuntu TV, surrounded by trumpets and fanfare. Then, late last
month, we had the Ubuntu for Android announcement, along with a wide
assortment of grand and enthusiastic predictions regarding its
significance. Soon afterward, it was the release of the first Ubuntu
12.04 beta.

Apple Forgets Steve Jobs and Announces a Non-Magical iPad
Over the years, I've watched company after company lose its invaluable
edge because executives critical to its success moved on, or died, and
didn't pass on critical skills. Only IBM really made a massive effort
not to screw this up, and even it eventually forgot, forcing a massive
reset -- which almost caused it to fail -- in the late 1980s and early
1990s.

Kony 2012: World Connects to Smoke Out Evil Warlord
"Kony 2012," 30-minute online video spotlighting the atrocities of
Joseph Kony, head of Uganda's Lord's Resistance Army, has garnered
support around the globe for his removal. In 2005, Kony was indicted for
war crimes by the International Criminal Court in The Hague, after
decades of brutal actions against people -- children in particular.
