A little treat: my first girlfriend

Robert Scoble — Fri, 18 Jan 2008 20:17:28 +0000

While at the BlogHaus at CES 2008 I had a little surprise: my first girlfriend from high school showed up. I hadn’t seen her since 1983. She’s now director of marketing at Plantronics, and we have a fun chat about high school back in the 1980s with Fred Davis, the guy who helped start Wired Magazine, among other things. Fun conversation and a little personal too boot!

Cyrstal Clear Calls with ClearOne

Brad Baldwin — Sun, 13 Jan 2008 09:42:46 +0000

ClearOne, a Salt Lake City-based company, holds a majority of the global market share in the professional audio conferencing systems category. It should come as no surprise that their conference phone products for the desktop and individuals wouldn’t include significant technology enhancements that set them apart from the “el’cheapo” models you see on eBay. With full-duplexing, noise canceling, noise reduction, high-quality microphones and industrial design to enhance a voice, ClearOne products pack the best in audio technology.

Brad Baldwin learns about ClearOne from Kurt Olsen during the 2008 Consumer Electronics Show (CES) in Las Vegas. Olsen shows off the Chat 50, which lets the mobile executive place calls via her cellphone or plug into a laptop via USB for Skype or softphone use.

Virtualization and Data Center Consolidation

Jason Lopez — Fri, 14 Dec 2007 16:30:27 +0000

Intel is launching an eight-year process of data center consolidation, as Brently Davis, communications and stakeholder manager, blogs on IT@Intel. In this video podcast, he discusses the benefits — reducing costs, improving server and storage utilization], creating higher density & more energy-efficient data centers — and challenges, like impact on business partners, impact on different parts of the company, and costs. The strategy is known as “D.O.M.E.,” which stands for “Design, office, manufacturing and enterprise” computing. IT Architect Travis Broughton, who uses a parking lot to illustrate some of the challenges of virtualization in a recent post on IT@Intel, also weighs in on virtualization’s role in data center consolidation.

Virtualization and Enterprise Architecture: The Security Architect

Jason Lopez — Sat, 01 Dec 2007 02:34:55 +0000

Data centers today are under pressure from rising compute requirements, demand for storage capacity and energy costs. In this video podcast from IT@Intel, Alan Ross, principal engineer and enterprise architect with Intel IT, shares experiences, technology assessments and best practices around data center efficiency, virtualization and consolidation.

Transforming the data center requires understanding the underlying domains: facility, network, server, storage and how security interacts with manageability and other technology. The security architect has to evolve plans for business continuity and disaster recovery, as well as jump into emerging threat and risk arenas like Web application security. Facilities monitoring and management and energy savings require understanding and balancing customer service levels with the need to pinpoint where, when and how much compute power is needed, and migrating workloads accordingly. Virtualization is another game-changer in the data center, increasing capacity and manageability while decreasing energy consumption.

Alan Ross comes to enterprise architecture from an unconventional background. He holds a number of patents, has worked with electrorheological fluids to change the behavior of automotive dampers, and hopes someday to be part of future innovations in energy efficiency, photovoltaics and photolytics.
