Mobile Handset Makers Hold the Key to Social Media on Mobile – Forres
2009-08-12 05:36:00 In a new report, Forrester suggests that social media websites and mobile handset makers will need to work more closely to make social media consumption better on mobiles. This point takes the responsibility of better engagement away from the sole shoulders of web/mobile publishers and provides a more holistic approach. The report essentially is on how mobile will change social computing being the 24×7 device. Mobile phones’ convenience, improving cameras and location awareness will make the mobile phone the dominant media creation device of the future, states the report. Only handset makers are able to deliver all five social mobile communication experiences due to the tight integration necessary with a phone’s core communication features, such as voice, SMS, and address book.

Facing the Real Problems with American Car Makers
2009-03-27 14:01:00 James Joyner, this morning: President Obama says he’ll help GM and Chrysler but they’ll have to agree to some “pretty drastic changes.” “We will provide them some help,” Obama said. “I know that it is not popular to provide help to auto workers — or to auto companies. But my job is to measure the costs of allowing these auto companies just to collapse versus us figuring out — can they come up with a viable plan?” He added: “If they’re not willing to make the changes and the restructurings that are necessary, then I’m not willing to have taxpayer money chase after bad money.” ... “Everybody is going to have to give a little bit — shareholders, workers, creditors, suppliers, dealers — everybody is going to have to recognize that the current model, economic model, of the U.S. auto industry is unsustainable,” Obama said. Says James; Obama’s absolutely right that, if the federal taxpayer is going to bail out these companies, then the government ...

But, I remain hopeful for the future of the pet food industry: **Hopefully the amount that the food companies have to pay, along with the loss of business, is enough of a wake-up call. **Hopefully these companies will realize that if anything like this happens again in the future, it's in their best interest to recall the foods as fast as possible and not try to fight it, and make the situation even worse, like they did in March,2007. **Hopefully this will teach the companies that it is better to spend money to inspect where the food is coming from, and to investigate any changes in ingredients before making the food. **The costs of doing it any differently are just too great.

Computer makers push device builders for Linux-compatible hardware

At the Linux Foundation meeting in Austin, Texas, last month, major PC vendors ASUS, Dell, Hewlett-Packard, and Lenovo said they would be telling their chipset, component, and peripheral OEMs (original equipment manufacturers) that they were going to demand Linux-compatible hardware from them. It's one thing when Linux users ask for support; it's an entirely different thing when multi-billion-dollar companies demand it. This is an offer that the OEMs can't refuse.
