Time: 12:00 p.m. New York/ 5:00 p.m. London
Overview:
Cloud computing is coming to a data center near you. The savings that can be gained by outsourcing processing to a cloud service, combined with the ability to quickly scale to meet demand, are compelling. But before you consider cloud computing, you first have to consider the changes that will take place within your own organization and the requirements a cloud provider will need to meet in order to provide a secure and reliable service. In this Webcast, we will discuss the governance issues surrounding cloud computing and its impact on the organization.

Businesses often struggle to decide which domain to use. When it comes to purchasing a domain name, you have plenty of extensions to choose from, ranging from .com and .net, to .me, and even .mobi. But which one should you pick?

In the 1970 science fiction thriller Colossus: The Forbin Project, two giant supercomputers from the United States and Soviet Union secretly join forces to take control of the collective nuclear might of the two countries. In the film, the two machines discover each other's existence, communicate back-and-forth, share their collective data, and cut their human creators out of the process. It is the ultimate example of machine-to-machine communications, or M2M.

Argument Over Top-Level Domains Is 'Stupid'

The whole Amazon.reader debate is a double-stupid. It's stupid to think that there's any e-book buyer who doesn't know Amazon's URL, and it was stupider to let ICANN launch the whole free-form TLD initiative to start with.
