The report is called "Securing Cyberspace for the 44th Presidency," and one paragraph in its opening section succinctly sets forth the Internet-related challenges awaiting President-elect Barack Obama. "Cybersecurity is now a major security problem for the United States," the Center for Strategic an...
I'm starting to lose track of which major news event is supposed to be THE turning point for technology-driven citizen journalism. Was it bloggers detailing the horrors of Sept. 11? The surreal graininess of cell phone videos and photos capturing the 2004 London subway bombings? The digital camcorde...
In the early days of YouTube, one could find scads of commercial pornography, plenty of amateur pole-dancing and scatological material out the wazoo, but as the world's top user-generated video Web site chases down more revenue, it has also cracked down on the kind of mature content that might make ...
President-Elect Barack Obama didn't show, but Obama Girl was there. So was Obama's unofficial Web troubadour, will.i.am. A real politician, San Francisco Mayor Gavin Newsom, presented an award to a real member of royalty, Queen Raina of Jordan, while Chad Vader, the unambitious, not-so-real brother ...
In four years, driving a car in the San Francisco Bay area may involve a variation of the "plug and play" concept. Think "plug and drive," if the mayors of San Francisco, Oakland and San Jose and start-up Better Place have their way. The company, founded by former SAP executive and Wired magazine co...
The history of James Bond films is the history of our fascination with technology: booby-trapped briefcases, jetpacks, cars with machine guns and ejector seats, super-magnet watches, cars driven by remote control, acid-filled fountain pens, cars that become invisible, sharks with frickin' lasers...
So far, the testimony in the Lori Drew cyber-bullying trial, which began Wednesday in Los Angeles, has generated headlines for its inherent drama and tragedy: the mother of a teenage daughter, accused of using the MySpace social network to stage an elaborate hoax that ends with the suicide of a trou...
That blur you saw at the edges of your vision just now? That would be the Internet continuing to move at light speed to your cell phone and other mobile devices. So Adobe's argument is, how can anything move that fast without Flash? The company is staging its MAX 2008 conference in San Francisco thi...
The military squad members from the hyperviolent "Gears of War" video game franchise are on your TV screen, sandwiched in between football scoring drives or reality show arguments or autopsies on "CSI Des Moines." Only there's not a insectoid killer alien to be seen for miles in this particular comm...
Cisco Systems' new ASR-9000 edge router promises faster delivery of all that rich Internet media destined for personal computers and mobile devices. The $80,000 question for potential customers: Will it prove to be too rich during challenging economic times? The company's new piece of telecommunicat...
CNN reporter Jessica Yellin has probably heard a lot of compliments during her career, which has included stints at ABC and MSNBC. But I'm guessing anchor Wolf Blitzer's closing comment to her following her live report from Chicago early Tuesday evening was a new one for her. "Alright Jessica, you'r...
It appears that Silicon Valley will hold Barack Obama to his promise to consider naming a national technology czar/chief technology officer for his administration, and industry observers already have a few suggestions for the president-elect. Google CEO Eric Schmidt has been mentioned as a contender...
This column is dedicated to the intersection of technology and traditional news media. With less than a week to go before America elects a new president, that intersection is looking more and more like the scene of a multi-vehicle pileup. The victims: democracy, the average voter, my patience. For m...
All together now: The Beatles are getting their own video game. If you're of a certain age, then the idea of playing a "Rock Band"-esque game featuring the Fab Four's music will almost certainly make you twist and shout. The big question for Harmonix and MTV Networks -- the makers of "Rock Band" whi...
The scenarios jump right out of a Brad Thor or Vince Flynn technothriller novel: Terrorists, using the microblogging service Twitter in conjunction with Google Maps, cell phone video and global positioning system technology, stage an ambush on troops in Iraq or coordinate an attack in an American ci...
The to-do list for the modern family: E-mail grocery list to hubby; Text oldest daughter re: pick up from soccer practice?; Call mother-in-law's cell re: Thanksgiving; Spend time on Webkins with youngest. If these items show up on your cell phone or PC calendars, congratulations. Your family is usin...
One of the books that had a big impact on me during my larval stage as a journalist was Dan Rather's "The Camera Never Blinks." The memoir was of Rather's experiences as a truly trailblazing and courageous TV reporter, not Rather the lightning-rod anchor with the southern-fried election night phrase...
When does an iReport give CNN's credibility a black eye? When its citizen "journalism" about a Steve Jobs heart attack turns out to be phony. It takes a lot during this Autumn of the Economic Meltdown for an individual company's stock woes to break out from the pack, but an Oct. 3 iReport on CNN.com...
"No scripts, no teleprompter here, no real structure and no Britney Spears," says anchor Heather Nauert on a Sept. 25 edition of Fox News Channel's "Strategy Room." Then again, who needs Spears when you've got five stunning examples of Fox's now-famous efforts to recruit attractive females, all sitt...
Maybe everybody involved in the debate over wireless spectrum white spaces should give each other a little, well, space, if the acrimonious comments broadcasting from Washington, D.C., this week are any indication. Google cofounder Larry Page contributed to the high-stakes static during a speech Wed...
