Today's Story Highlights

Disaffected Social Media Users Flock to Vero
Vero, a relatively unknown social network, has been enjoying a surge in
user engagement in recent weeks, a trend that may be tied to growing
user discontent over recent changes to Instagram's algorithm, along with
an assortment of other objections that have been driving users away from
the leading social platforms. Vero has rapidly moved up in the App Store
and Google Play rankings.

Apple Plans Healthcare Clinics as Employee Perk
Apple's plans to open a number of healthcare centers for its employees
surfaced this week.The centers will offer "a unique concierge-like
healthcare experience for employees and their dependents," according to
Apple. "AC Wellness is an independent medical practice exclusively
dedicated to delivering Passionate, Compassionate, and Effective
Healthcare," reads a post at the Glassdoor job website.

Red Hat Adds Zing to High-Density Storage
Red Hat has announced the addition of high-density storage capabilities
to its in-memory data management technology. The company has expanded an
alliance with Azul Systems to build on their prior collaboration to
provide entitlements for Azul Zing with JBoss Data Grid subscriptions.
The arrangement will help customers meet speed and volume needs for
their big data environments.

FutureProof Retail President Di Di Chan: Combine Your Strengths
FutureProof Retail aims to redefine the in-store checkout experience.
"From the consumer point of view, when you go shopping you have people
who help you and service you, and you walk away happy," said President
Di Di Chan. "What we're doing is bringing the online offline, to
centralize that service. It's not just the top VIP shopper who can enjoy
that experience -- everyone can."

When It's Time for a Linux Distro Change
It's common for Linux users to hop between distributions and survey the
field, and I recently reached a point where I had to seriously rethink
the one I was using most of the time. Between hardware compatibility
issues with my old standby and some discouraging missteps with other go-
to choices, I felt the time had come to reassess my pool of preferred
distributions and repopulate it from scratch.
