Podcast
Crossroads: Enterprise Architecture and Transformation (40:03 minutes)
Enterprise architecture and enterprise transformation are two distinct
concepts, but how much of a role should the former play in the latter?
Should EA's role be tightly constrained in the process of
transformation? Or is enterprise transformation nowadays significantly
dependent upon architecture? Should we make enterprise architecture a
critical aspect for any business moving forward?

Today's Story Highlights

Internet of Things Close, Thanks to ARM's Reach
Chipmaker ARM has announced a tiny product with huge implications. The
company unveiled its ARM Cortex M0+, a 1mm microchip it says can push
the edge of the Internet beyond your laptop or PC. Everything is on the
drawing board -- from a network-enabled fridge to devices powered by
your body's heat.

Keeping a Lid on It: New Motorcycle Helmet Technologies
It's extremely important to wear helmets when riding motorcycles,
according to Jackie Gillan, president of Advocates for Highway and Auto
Safety, but that's not just her personal opinion -- it's based on clear
facts about what happens in the case of a crash. "We know from research
that every time a state repeals its motorcycle helmet laws, there's an
immediate jump in deaths and brain injuries from motorcycle crashes,"
Gillan said.

Open Source Coopetition Fueled by LF Growth
The Linux Foundation has come a long way since initiated in 2007 as the
fusion of the Open Source Development Lab and Free Standards Group.
Though Canonical has remained outside the fold since its inception, it
has gained some significant members and new groups of collaborators --
the latest batch including graphics and microprocessor giant Nvidia.

Icon Project's Lost That Shortcut Feeling
Long ago, I jailbroke my iPhone. Ultimately, the experience was less
than fulfilling, and within a few weeks I opted to unjailbreak it back
to its normal state. Jailbreaking somehow made the phone feel a little
frail. The only jailbreak options I could find at the time necessitated
the phone to be hooked up to my computer each time it was turned on. Not
a huge problem. But then there was the respringing.

Journalists Battle Web Censorship With Internet 'Enemies' List
While developments such as the Arab Spring show the power of the
Internet, there remain news blackouts, harassment of bloggers, and even
attempts to shut down social media in several nations. This is one of
the key findings of Reporters Without Borders, which released its annual
"Enemies of the Internet" report on Monday, listing countries that
curtail access to the Web and freedom of expression.
