Lessons from Twitter's security breach | news.cnet.com

Regardless of how careful a cloud provider is with security, all it takes is one or two persons with weak passwords to lead critical information.  Although blameless, cloud computing in general and Google in particular are likely to suffer from this incident.

Nortel Fire Sale Begins

June 22, 2009

Nortel selling wireless unit to Nokia Siemens | finance.yahoo.com

Wireless assets acquired by NSN from Nortel include the CDMA business and LTE IP (Intellectual Property).  NSN gets relationships with operators such as Bell Mobility, VerizonWireless, Sprint Nextel, KDDI, China Telecom. CDMA is still profitable and will have a long tail. NSN also expands its footprint in North America, which represents only ~ 5% of its revenues and this acquisiton will certainly better position the company to tackle one of its Achilles heels. NSN gets Nortel's IP on LTE including SON (Self-Organizing Networks) and ongoing LTE relationships (NT had won KDDI tender and was carrying out a trial at T-Mobile AG); 400/2,500 employees that NSN is getting from Nortel were working on LTE, other 2,100 on CDMA. Who will fill in the void in terms of R&D spend in Canada? NSN will open up a lab and there are rumors that Huawei will expand its presence, but look for more from other entrepreneurs such as Sir Terry Matthews. It will be tough to match Nortel's R&D budget.
