Podcast
Which IT Skills Are Pulling Big Bucks? (49:13 minutes)
Outsourcing, of course, has made a big impact on the IT job market over
the last few years, only it's sometimes called "managed services."
Companies are still very nervous about hiring full-time talent.
Security, however, is a tremendous place to be in IT right now.
Companies wants skills in forensics, biometrics, data leakage
prevention, intrusion detection and compliance.

Today's Story Highlights

Cisco Guns for Burgeoning Government Security Market
Cisco looks to be gearing up to take advantage of the Obama
administration's emphasis on cybersecurity and cooperation between the
public and private sectors. It has appointed former White House
cybersecurity adviser Melissa Hathaway as consultant. She will help
liaise with the federal government.

Sorry, You Just Can't Pin Down Apple Consumers
When I first noticed the Retrevo Pulse headline for its study that
examines consumer interest in buying the Apple iPad, my first reaction
was eerily in line with the traffic-grabbing headline, "Apple iPad
Hoopla Fails to Convince Buyers." I'm an unabashed fan of almost every
Apple product the company in Cupertino produces, and yet I'm still not
convinced the iPad is a worthy addition to my personal Apple lineup.

Phone-Hater Linus Torvalds Blesses Nexus One
Google's Nexus One phone is a winner, according to Linus Torvalds,
founder of the operating system it's based on. "I generally hate
phones," explained Torvalds, who is known as "the father of Linux," in a
blog post on Saturday. "At the same time I love the concept of having a
phone that runs Linux, and I've had a number of them over the years," he
wrote.

Endeavour Lifts Off to Fit ISS With Giant Observation Deck
Following a day's delay due to cloudy weather, space shuttle Endeavour
launched successfully early Monday morning from the Kennedy Space Center
in Florida. The shuttle, which launched at 4:14 a.m. EST, is carrying a
new module and an attached cupola for the International Space Station.

IBM Taps Green Power With New Chips, Servers
IBM on Monday launched a one-two punch with its new Power7 processors,
which the company claims have twice the performance of the Power6 line
but consume less power. These processors power IBM's Unix servers, four
new models of which were also unveiled Monday in a move that might
strengthen IBM's position in the Unix server market. The Power7 uses a
45 nanometer process.
