Today's Story Highlights

Facebook on Passwords During Job Interviews: Don't Ask, Don't Tell
Reacting to recent reports that some organizations are demanding that
job seekers turn over their Facebook passwords, the social network on
Friday criticized the practice for undermining members' privacy
expectations and security. It also pointed out that such a move could
expose employers who ask for passwords to dangerous liabilities and
vowed to take action to protect the privacy and security of its users.

IP&TV World Forum, Day 3: Multiscreen Mania
I'm surrounded by screens here at the Olympia exhibition hall -- tablet-
sized, big screens, you name it -- and they all connect with each other.
It's day three at the IP&TV World Forum. The lowly remote control can
soon be buried under the sofa cushions for good, judging by the
offerings from set-top box manufacturers here.

12 Steps for Staying 1 Step Ahead of Online Security Threats
With the explosion of Web-based communications in the form of
applications, blogs, podcasts, and social networking sites like Facebook
and Twitter, new security threats that can cause serious damage to
computers are emerging. As they access these Web-based services from
both work and personal computers, many users are unaware that they may
be exposing themselves and their organizations to risk.

Photoshop Beta Pops With New Features, New Look
It's not often that Adobe offers the public a free preview of its
flagship product, Photoshop, but that's what it's doing with the next
version of the photo editing software. Adobe announced Thursday that a
beta release of Photoshop CS6 for both PCs and Macs is available from
the company's website. Although the CS6 download is free, you have to
create a user account before you can install it on your computer.

Remote Web Desktop Full: Really Smart App Deserves Better Support
We've been seeing applications that allow you to remotely access desktop
PCs for years. They have tended to function on a PC-to-PC connection
basis over the Internet -- like Symantec's pcAnywhere software, which is
often used for remote PC troubleshooting. More recently, we've been
seeing tools that allow you to operate PCs from tablet platforms, like
the $24.95 LogMeIn Ignition for Android. However, what about the other
way?

Nvidia's New GPUs Could Be Real Game Changers
Nvidia has launched the first graphic processing units based on its
next-generation Kepler graphics architecture, which offers the promise
to deliver superior gaming performance, according to the company. One of
the key components of video games on the PC is, of course, the graphics,
and as long as there have been games, there have been attempts to take
video performance to the next level.
