The control/proprietary power of Social gaming/application on FB and its platform will become far more controlled now (Which it already is) - They are just thinning the herd again...
Some tools I've used only need the CLI, others need a gui...Nagios for one...Great with a web interface...Same with Cacti. You can have a myriad of tools to help, whatever works for your institution is what the standard should be (for that inst.).
I am assuming just leaking information as to where you're and the id you're tweeting from could assist someone to track you, and you only...
As for troop movements and strengths, I assume that would have to do w/ the idiot actually tweeting in a combat zone.
My 2 cents, the fact that these guys are even permitted to have devices such as a phone, or a laptop/net book baffles me still. I find it odd that we are so worried about their morale and their day-dreaming of home when a job that they signed up for needs to be given 100% focus.
Another thing that bothers me about this is the chance of someone social engineering these guys, espionage in the form of profiles on Facebook or via myspace - Posing as women in their home town, or what have you...The chances of a man spilling their guts to a piece of trim is highly likely...especially when they start using their second head...
With Google Applications I feel that it makes for a good 'home user' application when managing personal items, lists, or any sort of power application you may want to tool around with, all in all Google APPS is a great(powerful) resource, but imo not for large scale office use...
Open Office is a great route for open-source applications for offices, and Lotus Symphony; man, I have been using that for some time, but I don't know...It seems to demand a decent amount of CPU and Memory resources.
As for Google Apps/Office, if they do go any further with it, I have this hunch they will be selling it, not publishing it as an open source item.
Yeah...Microsoft is riddle with innovation; innovation in sucking my asshole.
GG to them and Vista blowing hard, really put a damper on my life with that.
I don't care what anyone says, I really think XP had a better run from the start...Innovation..bah.
Funny thing, I get here at around 6a.m. when I don't have classes, then I end up working on some projects, implementing, documentations, etcetera...Then by around 10-11a.m. we're browsing Slashdot, or doing whatever.
I grow sleepy...its 8:30 and I am on my 3rd 24oz coffee.
zzzzzz.....
I am a victim of virtual rape...
Totally owned me and I logged off..
I went to therapy for about a year after it...I am still a victim...I hope someone in hollywood..Possibly Susan Sarandon speaks out soon...
Yeah, the media and a bunch of douche bags are ruining a persons creativity. I used to think my school would have been a great Raven Shield 3 Map...For the longest time I wanted to map out the damn place..
Pretty shitty that this kid had to get picked up or nothing.
The government, the media, and a bunch of republicans are at fault.
This is a little over two years ago, on the subject of Ajax...and Web 2.0/ other buzzwords/works seem to be plugged more on technological forums/media...Who wouldn't want to be hip..Especially when your information's reputation is on the line.

IMO: Online Banking/money transfer/any sort of transaction/communique' that needs security should be held in the highest regards, with the most minimal in looks! Give us the information, not the bells and whistles!
Vista is the downfall of computers..As we know it; some people might think that its just another 'you know...people felt this way about xp at first.' I do not agree with this theory.
Sickens me really...
They're not supporting anything! Google needs to keep free speech; Censorship is just the start of losing 'freedom'...Esspecially over the net.
The initial comment left to RE: this thread said it best.
Another example of stupidity in the 'upper' management...Their roles are to overfill email accounts, complain about their keyboard clicking too loud, and asking lame questions on/about excel doc's....
This is a pretty generalized/obvious statement; the article is telling everyone the same song and dance in the "IT" world...Hello....!!!?? Of course the goddamn IT dept. has access to your emails! You hired them to fix your problems and maintain/keep in line your computer/network(s)/databases!
What do they expect? Hierarchy's-Pyramid's of workers who have specified 'secret clearance'? If a company has to go to that level of security to have only 1-2 people able to access 'upper managements' emails, then so be it...But the general thing is; when you work IT, you have reign/access to anything/anytime, just incase you're needed at any given moment.
I love the articles approach on scare tactics for the non-IT based readers;
"...the justification for comprehensive security systems is attributable to the largely unknown number of internal security breaches that are increasingly plaguing companies. Documenting these abuses is difficult because so many of them are never reported because of concerns over the negative public relations fallout."
-Im sorry; but your unsupported commentary on 'security systems' being 'breached' is bullshit; maybe the companies they're speaking of are hiring a bunch of halfwitts, or people who get bugs up their asses when they're not getting paid enough for long grueling hours; therefore not 'caring' about the job...Maybe they hired some person(s) who have had it and want to get back at the company they work for...etc. etc. ; too many variables to a problem this large...
Meh; IMO: most companies have a large IT dept. some should delegate a specific number of people who are under some sort of NDA or security clearance to access 'security sensitive' data....But I don't know...Most companies don't even have a security dept. dedicated to monitoring what is going out..and what is coming in...
This article is too abroad..more or less a scare tactic to 'pay for more security...'
My head hurts../end rant.
Approximately how much is 2MW per hour for energy cost? Is it around 110.00 Per hour? Or 10 times as much?...
I wonder if the data center will actually be worth the cost overall...
-Red orchestra: The games tops...esspecially if you like (simulated) WW2 games...They did a fantastic job on the effects..lighting and gameplay...Its very fluid...although it still needs work...What game doesn't?!
-Half-Life: Classic game...Nuff' Said...If it wasn't for HL1 and the mods that came out with it (DOD-CS(orig)-TFC-Firearms) most of the fsp games in the pc world wouldn't be what they are today...Due to HL...HL2 and Steam..as well as the games being put through steam..Just make everything sweeter.
-Operation Flashpoint: Classic! I was not a huge fan of the first person view...Reason: Its lame. haha. Other than that...the interface; as well as the modding was fantastic. Another game that helped push the limit of gaming...and due to that...I can't wait to see ArmA'.
-Battlefield 1942: First ever (successful- don't worry..WWIIOL doesn't deserve kudos') large scale FPS game released that sparked the addiction of the BF series...
-Ghost Recon: Classic- this game was mind-blowing....

Thats my 5 for shooters...I have a veriety of games that I play..but those were the innovative ones for online shooters...I would have added some others but I think these originals really sparked an addiction for most people; and as you can see...Many dev's have tried to remake all of their styles...I could also mention UT-Quake-ET-Rainbow 6-FEAR-etc...but I found these to be an ongoing...favorite for some.
(I dig more strategy games these days as well..and Flight Sims...IL2/HPS Sims.../CM)
